ORDER ADOPTING RECOMMENDATION OF THE
UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
Blackburn, J.
This matter is before me on the following: (1) the Unopposed Motion for Remand
[#8]1 filed November 3, 2015; and (2) the related Recommendation of United States
Magistrate Judge [#14] filed November 30, 2015. No objections to the recommendation
were filed. Therefore, I review the recommendation for plain error only. See MoralesFernandez v. Immigration & Naturalization Service, 418 F.3d 1116, 1122 (10 th Cir.
2005). Finding no error, much less plain error, in the recommendation, I find and conclude
that recommendation should be approved and adopted.

“[#8]” is an example of the convention I use to identify the docket number assigned to a
specific paper by the court’s case management and electronic case filing system (CM/ECF). I use this
convention throughout this order.
On November 2, 2015, the magistrate judge issued an order to show cause [#7] to
the parties directing them to show cause why this case should not be remanded to the
state court where it was filed initially. The magistrate judge noted that the record does not
establish the amount in controversy necessary to establish diversity jurisdiction under 28
U.S.C. § 1332. In response to the order to show cause, the defendants filed the
Unopposed Motion for Remand [#8] now at issue. I concur with the analysis and
conclusions detailed by the magistrate judge in her recommendation. Thus, I approve and
adopt the recommendation.
THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED as follows:
1. That the Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge [#14] filed
November 30, 2015, is approved and adopted as an order of this court; and
2. That this case is remanded to the District Court for Arapahoe County, Colorado,
where it was filed initially as 2015CV32459.
Dated April 13, 2016, at Denver, Colorado.
BY THE COURT:
