PER CURIAM.
In these two similar cases, appellants are homeowners represented by attorney
William Butler appealing the dismissal of their claims against their mortgage banks
and the denial of their motions to remand to state court. We find no error in either
case. See, e.g., Welk v. Ally Financial, Inc., No. 12-3141, __ F.3d __ (8th Cir. July
15, 2013), 2013 WL 3491049. Accordingly, we affirm the orders of the district court.1
See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
