LETTER ORDER
Re:

Kaye v. Reeves, et al.
Civil Action No. 15-6332 (ES) (MAH)

Dear Counsel:
Pending before this Court is Plaintiff’s motion to remand this matter to New Jersey
Superior Court in Essex County. (D.E. No. 34). On October 3, 2016, Defendants opposed
Plaintiff’s motion and, in the same brief, moved to dismiss Plaintiff’s Complaint. (D.E. No. 35).
On December 12, 2016, the Honorable Michael A. Hammer, U.S.M.J., issued a Report and
Recommendation (“R&R”) recommending that this Court deny Plaintiff’s motion. (D.E. No. 36).
Magistrate Judge Hammer advised the parties that they had until December 27, 2016 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 Hammer’s
R&R, and for the reasons stated therein,
IT IS on this 5th day of April 2017,
ORDERED that this Court adopts Magistrate Judge Hammer’s R&R in full; and it is
further
ORDERED that Defendants’ motion to dismiss Plaintiff’s Complaint is DENIED without
prejudice with leave to refile; and it is further
ORDERED that the Clerk of Court shall terminate docket entries 34 and 36.
SO ORDERED.
s/Esther Salas
