Opinion
Civil Action No. 07-cv-01816-JLK.
August 30, 2007
ORDER
The Defendant has filed a document entitled "Request for Jury Trial and Request to Transfer Case to U.S. District Court" (doc. #1). Both requests are DENIED. One assumes that these requests are meant to be a Motion to Withdraw the Order of Reference to Bankruptcy Court. No grounds are stated in the motion and no basis for the motion can be gleaned. The Plaintiffs have filed an "Objection to Defendant's Motion to Withdraw the Reference" (doc. #3), stating as grounds therefore that the motion or "request" is untimely and that there is no issue triable of right to a jury. The objection is sustained on both grounds. Subsequently, Defendant filed a pleading entitled "Defendants's Reply to Plaintiffs' Response to Defendant's Request for Jury Trial and Request to Transfer Case to U.S. District Court" (doc. #6), and the court has considered it as such.
IT IS ORDERED for the foregoing reasons the Motion to Withdraw the Order of Reference is DENIED, and
IT IF FURTHER ORDERED that this case is remanded to the Bankruptcy Court for further proceedings not inconsistent with this order.
