What to know about “snap” and “super snap” removals
Manage episode 414118493 series 3344448
Are you expecting a lawsuit? And do you want to get that lawsuit into federal court? If your client is domiciled in California, you need to know about “snap removals.” If you get wind of the lawsuit before it is served, you might be able to defeat the removal-bar on home-state defendants.
But don’t commit a “super snap” removal. That’s when you remove before the complaint is officially filed. The 9th Circuit just rejected those.
We discuss Casola v. Dexcom, Inc., and how to learn about lawsuits before they are even filed.
