This case, which has been much litigated in the Florida Courts, Growers Marketing Service, Inc. v. Conner, Fla.Dist.Ct.App., 1971, 249 So. 2d 486; Jack's Fruit Co. v. Growers Marketing Service, Inc., Fla., 1972, 261 So. 2d 171, makes its second appearance in this Court, Jack's Fruit Company v. Growers Marketing Service, Inc., 5 Cir., 1973, 488 F.2d 493. The arguments conclusively show that the District Court had no jurisdiction in this case and accordingly the judgment entered is vacated and the case remanded to the District Court with direction to dismiss for want of jurisdiction.1
