JULIA NELSON,

Presently before the court is the matter of Go Global Realty v. Nelson, case number 2:18cv-00474-JCM-VCF.

15

On March 15, 2018, defendant Julia Nelson filed a petition for removal of this action from

16

the justice court and a motion/application to proceed in forma pauperis. (ECF Nos. 1, 1-1). The

17

motion references the basis for removal as 28 U.S.C. § 1446(d). Section 1446(d) provides

18

procedures for removal, but does not govern a federal court’s ability to exercise jurisdiction over

19

a removed action. Defendant’s filings do not cite a relevant jurisdictional statute or plead facts

20

that support this court’s exercise of jurisdiction in this case. The court will remand the case for

21

want of jurisdiction.

22

Accordingly,

23

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that this case be remanded to the Justice Court for Las Vegas

24

Township.

25

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that defendant’s motion/application to proceed in forma

26

pauperis (ECF No. 1) be, and the same hereby is, DENIED as moot.
