1Opinion of the Court
KRAVITCH, Senior Circuit Judge:
Appellant Ambassador Factors Corporation (“Ambassador”) brought the instant suit in the Southern District of Georgia, invoicing that court’s admiralty jurisdiction, pursuant to 28 U.S.C.A. § 1333(1) (1993). On Defendant-Appellee Rhein-, Mass-, und See-Schiffahrtskontor’s (“RMS”) motion, the district court held that it lacked jurisdiction over the case. Undertaking a de novo review of the district court’s dismissal for lack of subject matter jurisdiction, Hall v. U.S. Dept. of Veteran’s Affairs, 85 F.3d 532, 533 (11th Cir.1996), we reverse.
