The memorandum shall include a certification that counsel has reviewed the Notice of Requirement for Diversity Jurisdiction and all applicable cases cited regarding the pleading of the AIC in cases asserting breach of an insurance contract. By no later than November 10, 2023, Plaintiff shall file a Motion to Remand, if he contends Defendant has not met its burden to establish subject matter jurisdiction..
