ORDER
v.
Teamsters Local 120,
Defendant.
Plaintiff’s Petition for Remand (Doc. No. 6) is DENIED. On its face, the
Complaint alleges at least one federal claim: violation of the Age Discrimination in
Employment Act, 29 U.S.C. § 216. (See Doc. No. 1, Ex. A (“Teamsters Union was . . .
guilty of . . . [t]wo counts of [v]iolation of the Age Discrimination In Employment
Act.”).) Accordingly, removal of the action to this Court was proper. See 28 U.S.C.
§ 1441(a) (“[A]ny civil action brought in a State court of which the district courts of the
United States have original jurisdiction[] may be removed . . . to the district court of the
United States for the district and division embracing the place where such action is
pending.”); 28 U.S.C. § 1331 (“The district courts shall have original jurisdiction of all
civil actions arising under the . . . laws . . . of the United States.”).
