SILVESTRE GARCIA, JR., Plaintiff, v. STATE FARM MUTUAL AUTOMOBILE INSURANCE COMPANY, Defendant.
ORDER
ROBERT PITMAN UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
Before the Court is the report and recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge Mark Lane concerning Plaintiff Silvestre Garcia, Jr.'s (“Garcia”) Motion for Remand, (Dkt. 3). (R. & R., Dkt. 7). Defendant State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company (“State Farm”) timely filed objections to the report and recommendation. (Objs., Dkt. 9).
A party may serve and file specific, written objections to a magistrate judge's findings and recommendations within fourteen days after being served with a copy of the report and recommendation and, in doing so, secure de novo review by the district court. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C). Because State Farm timely objected to the report and recommendation, the Court reviews the report and recommendation de novo. Having done so and for the reasons given in the report and recommendation, the Court overrules State Farm's objections and adopts the report and recommendation as its own order.
Accordingly, the Court ORDERS that the report and recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge Mark Lane, (Dkt. 7), is ADOPTED.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Garcia's Motion for Remand, (Dkt. 3), is GRANTED. This case is REMANDED back to the 455th Judicial District Court of Travis County, Texas.
The Clerk of the Court is directed to CLOSE this action.
