CIVIL ACTION

VERSUS

NO. 15-5235

NEW ORLEANS CITY

SECTION I
ORDER AND REASONS

The Court has before it a motion1 filed by Orleans Parish Sheriff Marlin N. Gusman (“the
Sheriff”) to remand the above-captioned matter to state court. The City of New Orleans (“the City”)
opposes the motion.2 The motion to remand raises the same legal issues as the motion to remand
filed in Gusman v. City of New Orleans, No. 15-5236 (filed Oct. 16, 2015). Accordingly, for the
reasons set forth in the order and reasons contemporaneously filed in Case Number 15-5236 granting
the motion to remand that matter,
IT IS ORDERED that the Sheriff’s motion is GRANTED and the above-captioned matter
is REMANDED to the Orleans Parish Civil District Court.

New Orleans, Louisiana, December 8, 2015.
