ORDER
This cause is before the Court on the parties’ Joint Motion to Remand (Doc. 31)
filed on May 30, 2017. The United States Magistrate Judge has submitted a report
recommending that the motion be granted.
After an independent de novo review of the record in this matter, and noting that
no objections were timely filed, the Court agrees entirely with the findings of fact and
conclusions of law in the Report and Recommendation.
Therefore, it is ORDERED as follows:
1.
The Report and Recommendation filed June 1, 2017 (Doc. 32), is
ADOPTED and CONFIRMED and made a part of this Order.
2.
The Joint Motion to Remand (Doc. 31) is GRANTED.
3.
This case is REMANDED to the USCIS with instructions to adjudicate
Plaintiffs’ Form N-400 applications—with the exception of any Form N-400 applications
that a Plaintiff withdraws—within 120 days.
4.
Within 120 days, the parties will file either a joint stipulation of dismissal—
once USCIS adjudicates the then-pending Form No-400 applications—or a joint motion
for the Court to re-open the case and enter a scheduling order.
5.
The Clerk is DIRECTED to administratively close the file, pending the filing
of either the joint stipulation of dismissal or the joint motion to re-open the case.
DONE AND ORDERED in Orlando, Florida on June 19, 2017.
