Filing 9
ENDORSED ORDER: In response to the Court's order (Doc. 7) to refile the notice of removal with properly pleaded citizenship, the removing defendant, Hyatt Corporation, filed a joint stipulation for remand. (Doc. #8). The joint stipulation does not provide any grounds for remand beyond the parties' apparent agreement. Hyatt Corporation is directed to file, no later than May 25, 2026, another joint stipulation that briefly sets out the grounds for remand or identifies authority that allows the Court to remand based on the agreement of the parties alone. Signed by Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle on 5/21/2026. (GTD)

| Filing 8 Joint STIPULATION for Remand to State Court by Hyatt Corporation. (Sausaman, Alison) Modified on 5/21/2026 to edit the docket text (MLB). |

Filing 7
ENDORSED ORDER: The notice of removal (Doc. #1) fails to adequately plead the citizenship of all parties. Specifically, it does not plead the citizenship of each member of defendant BW CW Hospitality, LLC. Instead, it merely states that none of the defendant's members are citizens of Florida, but this is insufficient for determining that there is complete diversity because the plaintiff is not alleged to be a citizen of Florida. The removing defendant, Hyatt Corporation, is directed to refile the notice of removal after properly pleading the citizenship of each member of the BW CW Hospitality, LLC, no later than May 20, 2026. The Court also directs Hyatt Corporation to review the dates throughout the notice of removal and confirm or correct them as needed because the notice of removal purports to have been signed on March 17, 2025, calling into question the accuracy of the other dates, most of which are also listed as 2025. Signed by Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle on 5/15/2026. (GTD)

Mendez, Emily Barry of Local Rule 2.01(b)(2)(B), which requires members of the Middle District bar to maintain with the clerk a current telephone number, mailing address, and email address.
