083811P.pdf   12/09/2010  Rene Junk  v.  Terminix International Co.
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  08-3811
   U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Des Moines   
   [PUBLISHED] [Murphy, Author, with Beam and Benton, Circuit
   Judges]
   Civil case - torts. Plaintiff's complaint stated facts sufficient to make a
   colorable claim against defendant Breneman under Iowa law, and the
   claim against him should have been remanded to state court; district
   court's order error in denying remand with respect to Breneman, while
   erroneous, did not invalidate its subsequent orders as the court had
   diversity jurisdiction with respect to the other defendants; district court's
   orders refusing to admit plaintiff's expert witnesses' testimony were not
   erroneous; no error in excluding an EPA report on the grounds it had
   little probative value and posed a substantial risk of prejudice; district
   court did not err in granting summary judgment to the defendants on the
   ground plaintiff failed to establish general and specific causation.
