ORDER Denying 9 Motion to Remand, by Judge Richard P. Matsch on 1/2/2014.(rpmcd)

THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO
Senior District Judge Richard P. Matsch
Civil Action No. 13-cv-03365-RPM
PAULINE M. RODRIGUEZ,
Plaintiff,
v.
CROCS, INC., d/b/a CRACKER BARREL OLD COUNTY STORE,
Defendant.
____________________________________________________________________________________
ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF’S MOTION FOR REMAND
____________________________________________________________________________________
This civil action was removed from the District Court for the City and County of Denver, by the
Notice of Removal, filed December 12, 2013, asserting jurisdiction based on diversity of citizenship, 28
U.S.C. § 1332. On December 30, 2013, the plaintiff filed a motion to remand, asserting removal is
improper because the amount in controversy has not been shown to exceed $75,000.00. It is clear
from the allegations of the complaint that the plaintiff is claiming more than $75,000.00 and the
motion to remand does not unequivocally limit the recovery to less than that jurisdictional amount and it
is therefore,
ORDERED that the motion to remand is denied.

Dated: January 2nd , 2014
BY THE COURT:
s/Richard P. Matsch
