BARRY LOUIS LAMON, Plaintiff, v. MCTAGGART, et al., Defendants.
TWENTY-ONE (21) DAY DEADLINE
ORDER REQUIRING DEFENDANTS TO RESPOND TO PLAINTIFF'S MOTION TO REMAND THIS ACTION TO STATE COURT
(ECF No. 5)
Plaintiff Barry Louis Lamon (“Plaintiff”') is a state prisoner proceeding pro se in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. This action was removed from Kings County Superior Court on November 3, 2022. (ECF No. 1.)
On December 22, 2022, following an extension of time, Plaintiff filed a motion to remand this action to state court. (ECF No. 5.) Defendants did not file a response to Plaintiff's motion to remand, and the deadline has since expired. Having reviewed Plaintiff's motion, the Court finds it appropriate to obtain a response from Defendants regarding Plaintiff's motion to remand.
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED as follows:
1. Defendants shall file a response to Plaintiff's motion to remand this action to state court, (ECF No. 5), within twenty-one (21) days from the date of service of this order; and
2. Plaintiff may file a reply, if any, within fourteen (14) days of the date of service of Defendants' response.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
