Description
LCS Services, Inc., appeals the district court's granting of appellees' motion to dismiss this suit seeking injunctive and monetary relief under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The district court relied on three alternative grounds -- (1) the states' Eleventh Amendment immunity; (2) state officials' immunity from official-capacity suits under § 1983; and (3) Burford abstention. We find that, even though defendants are not immune from all of the claims asserted, abstention was nonetheless appropriate. Accordingly, we affirm.
