   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  08-1442
                          and No:  08-1443
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Little Rock   
   [PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Wollman and Smith, Circuit Judges]
Civil case. For the history of the parties' prior litigation involving the question of whether ERISA preempts provisions of the Arkansas Patient Protection Act, see Prudential Ins. Co. of Am. v. Nat'l Park Med. Ctr., Inc. 154 F.3d 812 (8th Cir. 1998) and Prudential Ins. Co. of Am. v. Nat'l Park Med. Ctr., Inc., 413 F.3d 897 (8th Cir. 2005). Because the district court could not effectuate, protect or enforce the dissolved provisions of the injunction it had previously entered, Blue Cross and USAble failed to establish ancillary jurisdiction, and the district court did not err in dismissing the case for lack of jurisdiction; All Writs Act is neither a source of nor substitute for federal jurisdiction and could not provide an independent source of subject matter jurisdiction.
