Now that the case has been remanded, Defendants intend to assert the previously dismissed counterclaims and desire that they be reinstated. Therefore, the parties stipulate to the vacation of, and request that the Court vacate, the dismissal without prejudice of Defendants' counterclaims so that those counterclaims are reinstated.
