Date Filed Document Text
August 14, 2014 Opinion or Order Filing 8 MEMORANDUM ORDER. It has been crystal-clear for more than two centuries (see Strawbridge v. Curtiss, 7 U.S. (3 Cranch) 267 (1806)) that such common citizenship between any party on one side of the "v." and any party on the other side of t hat symbol defeats diversity. Moreover, if diversity were present, Section 1441(b)(2) would preclude removal in the diversity case because of defendant Randle's Illinois citizenship. All of that being true, Section 1447(c) mandates the remand of this case to its place of origin in the Circuit Court of Cook County, and this Court so orders. To implement the remand and enable the parties to go forward with the litigation promptly, the Clerk of Court is ordered to mail the certified copy of the remand order to the Clerk of the Circuit Court forthwith. Civil case terminated. Signed by the Honorable Milton I. Shadur on 8/14/2014. Mailed notice(tlp, ) Modified by the Clerk's Office on 8/15/2014 (rm, ).
