28 USC § 1332(b)
Except when express provision therefor is otherwise made in a
statute
of the United States, where the plaintiff who files the case originally
in the Federal courts is finally adjudged to be entitled to recover
less
than the sum or value of $75,000, computed without regard to any setoff
or counterclaim to which the defendant may be adjudged to be entitled,
and exclusive of interest and costs, the district court may deny costs
to the plaintiff and, in addition, may impose costs on the plaintiff.
