Rule
A district court has discretion to remand pendent state law claims to state court when the federal claims that provided the basis for jurisdiction have been dismissed.
Significance
Confirmed that remand (not just dismissal) is an available tool when federal claims drop out, giving courts flexibility to return state claims to state court rather than dismissing without prejudice.
