Defendants.

ORDER

Before the Court are Plaintiffs' Motion to Amend Complaint

and to Add a Party (Doc. 46) and Plaintiffs' Motion to Remand
(Doc. 47). Plaintiffs request that the Court allow Plaintiffs to
amend their complaint to drop the racketeering charge against
Defendants

and

to

add

an

(Doc. 46 at 2.) Pursuant to

additional

party-Peter

Sikorsky.

Federal Rule of Civil Procedure

15(a)(2), a court may grant permission to amend a complaint

"when justice so requires." Defendants have

no objection to

Plaintiffs' request to drop the racketeering charge. (Doc. 50 at

their complaint to remove the racketeering charge. Because this
action deprives this Court of jurisdiction, the Court DECLINES
