How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• concluding that \the forum defendant rule does not apply to this case because plaintiffs failed to properly serve [the in-state defendant] prior to removal of this case to federal court\
• “To accept [the] argument that ‘properly . . . served’ means proper service of a complaint or writ of summons, would encourage variety across the nation and would not encourage Congress’ intent of uniform application of removal statutes.” (second alteration in original)
