   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  16-1280
   U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Kansas City   
   [PUBLISHED] [Riley, Author, with Wollman and Kelly, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Civil rights. In order to state a claim under the 
   Full-and-Equal Benefit clause of 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1981, a plaintiff must 
   allege some sort of state action contributed to the plaintiff being 
   discriminated against, and the district court properly dismissed 
   plaintiff's claim as it did not plead any state action; the district court 
   did not abuse its discretion by refusing to exercise supplemental 
   jurisdiction over plaintiff's state law claims.
