Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding that court did not have jurisdiction over abuse of process claim alleging improper conduct in a federal suit because there is no federal common law claim for abuse of process (citing Wheeldin, 373 U.S. at 652)
• suit alleging abuse of federal process does not state a federal question; federal interest was not such that federal common law would be formulated and applied
