Description
Per Curiam. The district court properly dismissed plaintiff's action for lack of jurisdiction and for failure to state a claim. We explain briefly. If the state probate court incorrectly concluded plaintiff had been properly served, erred in refusing to order blood tests, improperly assessed the evidence, or made other mistakes, plaintiff's remedy was to appeal within the state court system and then petition the Supreme Court for a writ of certiorari. Plaintiff may not litigate these type of challenges to the state court proceedings in a lower federal court because lower federal courts lack jurisdiction to review state court proceedings. Rooker v. Fidelity Trust Co., 263 U.S. 413, 415-16, 68 L. Ed. 362, 44 S. Ct. 149 (1923); Lancellotti v. Fay, 909 F.2d 15, 17 (1st Cir. 1990).
