ORDER

JASON G. GRANTZ, JOHN DOE, and
MARY ROE,
Defendants.

Curt N. Trisko, Jeffrey D. Klobucar, Nchangnyuy K. Fondungallah, Rebecca F. Schiller,
and Sarah J.B. Adam, SCHILLER & ADAM, P.A., for plaintiff.
William B. Butler, BUTLER LIBERTY LAW, LLC, for defendants.
This matter was referred to Chief Magistrate Judge Arthur J. Boylan for all proceedings,
including the determination of all dispositive and nondispositive motions in the first instance.
See ECF No. 3. On September 12, 2013, Judge Boylan ordered that the motion to remand of
plaintiff Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation be granted. This matter is now before the
Court on the objection of defendant Jacqueline Grantz (captioned “Mary Roe”) to that order.
The Court has conducted a de novo review. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b);
Williams v. Beemiller, Inc., 527 F.3d 259, 264-66 (2d Cir. 2008) (finding that order of magistrate
judge granting motion to remand is subject to de novo review by district court). Based on that
review, the Court overrules Grantz’s objection and adopts the September 12 order.
