CASE NO. 2:16-CV-86-WKW

 

ORDER

On April 28, 2016, the Magistrate Judge filed a Recommendation (Doc. # 32) 

to which Defendant Ohio National Life Assurance Corporation timely filed 

objections (Doc. # 34). The court has conducted an independent and de novo review 

of those portions of the Recommendation to which objections are made, see 28 

U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). The court concludes that the objections are without merit and 

that the Magistrate Judge’s Recommendation is due to be adopted.

Accordingly, it is ORDERED that:

(1) Defendant’s objections (Doc. # 34) are OVERRULED;

(2) The Recommendation (Doc. # 32) is ADOPTED;

(3) Plaintiff’s Motion to Remand (Doc. # 11) is GRANTED; and

(4) This case is REMANDED to the Circuit Court of Bullock County, 

Alabama, for lack of subject matter jurisdiction at the time of removal.
