The magic trick for plaintiffs seeking to avoid removal of their case to federal court is to plead only state claims (to avoid federal question removal) and sue at least one party from the same state (to avoid diversity removal).
A defendant can remove a case within 30 days of receiving an amended petition or complaint. In many situations, however, the defendant cannot remove the case if more than one year has elapsed since the lawsuit was first filed.
A plaintiff may never remove its own case, even if the defendant files counterclaims alleging violations of federal law by the plaintiff. A plaintiff must seek a dismissal without prejudice and refile in federal court.
A notice of removal is signed by the defendants and filed in federal court to begin the process of transferring the civil action from state court to federal court.In such a case, the defendant or defendants may remove the case to the federal district court for the district and division in which the action is pending.
Promptly after the filing of such notice of removal of a civil action the defendant or defendants shall give written notice thereof to all adverse parties and shall file a copy of the notice with the clerk of such State court, which shall effect the removal and the State court shall proceed no further unless and until
Once a case has been removed from state to federal court, the state court no longer has jurisdiction over the matter, though a federal court can remand a case to state court.A plaintiff can also move to have the case remanded to state court if the plaintiff does not believe federal jurisdiction exists.
