A citizen of state a and a citizen of state b were in an automobile accident in state
a. the state a citizen filed a negligence action against the state b citizen in a state a state court, seeking $500,000 in damages. may the state b citizen have the case removed to federal district court?

Respuesta :

The state B citizen should file a motion to remand the action to state court in the federal court. The citizen of state B should file a motion to remand. The filing of a notice of removal ends state court jurisdiction and accomplishes the removal. The person however, may file a motion in the federal court asking that action be remanded to state court, either because it was not properly removed or because the federal court lacks subject matter jurisdiction.Â
