Hyde v. Phoenix Ins. Co.

U.S. District Court

Decided July 1, 1873

U.S. District Court · decided 1873-07-01

This suit was commenced in one of the •courts of the state, and, on entering its appearance therein, the defendant made application for its removal, under section 12 ■of the judiciary act, to this court; and an order for the removal was accordingly made. The present is the next term of this court after the removal.

Decided 1873-07-01

DILLON, Circuit Judge.

¶1The court perceives no objection, under the circumstances, to granting leave to the plaintiff to file the transcript from the state court alnd to have the suit docketed. The plaintiff may, thereupon, move either to have the cause remanded to the state court or elect to treat it as pending in this court. In the latter event, as the issues were not made up before the removal, the case, under the practice (should there be an answer filed to the merits), is not triable at this term unless by consent; but the issues must be settled during the term, and if the company shall not appear and answer when required, it may be defaulted.

¶2The motion to file the transcript is sustained. Motion sustained.
