On October 18, 2010, the magistrate judge filed findings and recommendations herein, which were served on the parties and which contained notice to the parties that any objections to the findings and recommendations were to be filed within fourteen days. Objections to the findings and recommendations have been filed. In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C) and Local Rule 304, this court has conducted a de novo review of this case. Having reviewed the entire file, the court finds the findings and recommendations to be supported by the record and by proper analysis and are adopted to the extent that some aspect of this case is not construed as a removal case. Any aspect of the case that is not a removal from state court is dismissed. However, Petitioner states in a federal court document filed on October 8, 2010, that this case was removed from state court. Petitioner cannot remove the case to federal court. "The right to remove a state court case to federal court is clearly limited to defendants." American Intern. 1
