Question presented

Does a District Court have supplemental jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. '1367 to dismiss a proffered amended complaint deleting all federal claims pursuant to the Ninth Circuit’s “futility exception,” despite Congress having made remand of such an amended complaint mandatory under 28 U.S.C. '1447(c)?
