LETTER ORDER
Re:

Schoonmaker v. Holland, et al.
Civil Action No. 13-683 (ES) (SCM)

Dear Counsel:
Pending before this Court is Plaintiff Michael Schoonmaker’s Motion to Remand this
case to the Superior Court of New Jersey, Sussex County. (D.E. No. 2). On August 2, 2013,
Magistrate Judge Steven C. Mannion issued a Report and Recommendation (“R&R”)
recommending that this Court grant Plaintiff’s Motion to Remand. (D.E. No. 5). Magistrate
Judge Mannion also recommended denying Plaintiff’s request for attorneys’ fees and costs.
Magistrate Judge Mannion advised the parties that they had fourteen days to file and
serve any objections to the R&R pursuant to L. Civ. R. 72.1(c)(2). To date, parties have not filed
any objections.
The Court has considered the parties’ submissions, as well as Magistrate Judge
Mannion’s R&R, and for the reasons stated therein,
IT IS on this 17th day of September 2013,
ORDERED that this Court adopts Magistrate Judge Mannion’s August 2, 2013 R&R in
full, and thus grants Plaintiff’s Motion to Remand and denies Plaintiff’s request for attorneys’
fees and costs; and it is further
ORDERED that the Clerk of Court shall terminate D.E. Nos. 2 and 5; and it is further
ORDERED that the Clerk of Court close this case.

SO ORDERED.
