ORDER
This matter is before the Court following Plaintiff’s [Docket Entry #18] Post-removal
clarification regarding the amount in controversy. In light of Plaintiff’s post-removal clarification
indicating that the amount in controversy is less than the jurisdictional amount of this Court, it is
clear that this Court lacks subject matter jurisdiction over this case. See 28 U.S.C. § 1332. Pursuant
to 28 U.S.C. § 1447(c), if at any time before final judgment it appears that the district court lacks
subject matter jurisdiction, the case shall be remanded. 28 U.S.C. § 1447(c). Further, Defendant has
indicated in court filings that it would consent to remand provided the Plaintiff stipulated that the
amount in controversy was below the jurisdictional amount of this Court.
Therefore, this case is hereby REMANDED to the South Carolina Court of Common Pleas
for the Twelfth Judicial Circuit in Marion County. A certified copy of this Order of Remand shall
be mailed by the Clerk of this Court to the Clerk of Court for the Twelfth Judicial Circuit in Marion
County.
