The grounds for remand are that plaintiff has agreed to dismiss General Steamship 

Agencies, Inc. (and another defendant, Transmarine Navigation Corporation) and has authorized 

the filing of a dismissal of those parties upon remand. Based thereon, GSA no longer has a 

practical interest in whether this action proceeds in state or federal court, and has therefore agreed 

to remand, accordingly.
