111027P.pdf   03/05/2012  Bonnie Hargis  v.  Access Capital Funding, LLC
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  11-1027
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Wollman, Author, with Melloy and Colloton, Circuit Judges]
Civil Case - Diversity. District court did not err in denying motion to remand removed case under the Class Action Fairness Act because a preponderance of the evidence showed that the jurisdictional minimum was satisfied and Hargis did not establish to a legal certainty that the claim was for less. Case should have been dismissed for lack of jurisdiction, because Hargis did not show fees were paid for services that constituted an unauthorized practice of law or that higher interest rate was charged based on fees connected to the loan. District court did not abuse its discretion in denying request for time to complete further discovery or for denying request for judicial notice.
