Plaintiff Ladonna Hill filed this lawsuit against Wal-Mart in state court for injuries she claims
11
she sustained when she slipped and fell at a Wal-Mart store. The first time that Wal-Mart removed
12
this case to federal court, Judge Andrew Gordon remanded it because Wal-Mart failed to
13
demonstrate that the value of this case satisfies the jurisdictional threshold.1 When Hill moved to
14
exclude this case from the state-court arbitration program for cases with a value below $50,000, Wal-
15
Mart again removed it. Plaintiff moves to remand.2 For the reasons I stated on the record at today’s
16
hearing on that motion to remand,
17
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Motion to Remand [ECF No. 7] is GRANTED; this
18
case is remanded back to the Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County, Nevada, Case No.
19
A-16-747573-C, Dept. No. 32. The Clerk of Court is directed to CLOSE THIS CASE.
