JOINT STIPULATION AND ORDER
This is an immigration case in which plaintiff alleges that defendants have delayed in the adjudication of plaintiff's Application for Naturalization, and seeks a de novo determination of that Application pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1447(b). The matter is now ripe for administrative adjudication. Accordingly, and in lieu of defendants' motion to remand, the parties stipulate that the case be remanded with instructions to the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services to adjudicate the application within 60 days from the date of the order of remand.
ORDER
For the reasons set forth in the Joint Stipulation, this Court:
1. REMANDS this action to United States Citizenship and Immigration Services pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1447(b) with instructions to adjudicate the Application for Naturalization no later than October 10, 2007;
2. ORDERS the parties, no later than October 15, 2007, to file: (1) papers to dismiss this action in its entirety; or (2) a joint report on the status of adjudication by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services of plaintiff's naturalization application and whether the parties request a conference to set trial and related dates. This Court will close this action if the parties fail to timely file papers to dismiss this action or a status report.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
