Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

     Kimmy R. Cathey seeks to appeal the district court’s order

remanding this removed action to the state court for lack of

jurisdiction.      With certain exceptions not applicable here, “[a]n

order remanding a case to the State court from which it was removed

is not reviewable on appeal or otherwise.”             28 U.S.C. § 1447(d)

(2012).   The Supreme Court has limited the scope of § 1447(d) to

prohibiting appellate review of remand orders based on a defect in

the removal procedure or lack of subject matter jurisdiction.

Quackenbush v. Allstate Ins. Co., 517 U.S. 706, 711–12 (1996); see

28 U.S.C. § 1447(c) (2012).     Here, the remand was based on lack of

subject   matter    jurisdiction.       Accordingly,    this   court   lacks

jurisdiction to review the district court’s order.             We therefore

deny Cathey leave to proceed in forma pauperis and dismiss the

appeal. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal

contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this

court and argument would not aid the decisional process.



                                                                  DISMISSED
