The
standards for a federal court Motion to Remand a Case were recently addressed
in the matter of Gentry v. Sikorsky
Aircraft Corp., No. 15-1326 (E.D. Pa. April 22, 2019 Pratter, J.). According to the Opinion, the corporate
Defendants in this matter removed the case from Pennsylvania state court where
the Defendants were citizens of Delaware and Connecticut and had complete
diversity from the Plaintiff, who was a citizen of Tennessee, and were all of
the real and substantial Defendants to the action had consented to the
removal.
The
Plaintiff had filed a Motion for Remand which was denied. The court found that there was complete
diversity between the parties such that the removal was proper. As such, the Plaintiff’s Motion to Remand was
denied.
