Abstract
We discuss the Chern-Simons theory in three-dimensional curved space-t ime in the vielbein formalism. Due to the additional presence of the l ocal Lorentz symmetry, beside the diffeomorphisms, we will include a l ocal gravitational supersymmetry (superdiffeomorphisms and super-loren tz transformations), which allows us to show the perturbative finitene ss at all orders.
