October 5, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 11 MINUTE ORDER IN CHAMBERS by Judge Percy Anderson. On September 24, 2020, the Court issued an order provisionally remanding this action to the Los Angeles County Superior Court as a result of procedural defects in the Notice of Removal. The Court stayed the order remanding the action to provide plaintiff with an opportunity to object to the remand and waive the procedural defects. Specifically, plaintiff was directed to inform the Court in writing by October 1, 2020, if plaintiff objected to the remand. To date, despite the passage of the deadline set by the Court, plaintiff has not waived the procedural defects. Accordingly, for the reasons stated in the September 24, 2020 Order, this action is remanded to the Los Angeles County Superior Court, Case No. 19STCV15635. Case Terminated. Made JS-6. (mrgo)
September 24, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 10 MINUTE ORDER IN CHAMBERS - COURT ORDER by Judge Percy Anderson. The Court therefore concludes that the Notice of Removal is procedurally defective. See 28 U.S.C. 1446(b)(1). Accordingly, this action is remanded to Los Angeles Superior Court, Case No. 19STCV15635, for failure to comply with the removal requirements of 28 U.S.C. 1446. See 28 U.S.C. 1447(c). The Court stays this order until October 1, 2020. If Plaintiff wishes to waive the procedural defect and, as a result, remain in federal court, she must file a Notice of Waiver of Procedural Defects no later than October 1, 2020.
