Laber et al v. United Steel, Paper and Forestry, Rubber, Manufacturing, Energy, Allied Industrial and Service Workers International Union et al, No. 5:2013cv00640 - Document 27 (N.D. Ohio 2014)

Court Description: Order: On January 31, 2014, the Court entered a Memorandum Opinion and Order denying plaintiffs' motion to remand this action to state court. (Doc. No. 14 ). Plaintiffs sought reconsideration and also sought leave to amend their complain t to include a fraud claim. The Court denied reconsideration but ruled that plaintiffs' proposed fraud claim was not preempted by federal law. (Doc. No. 25 .) The Court afforded plaintiffs leave to amend their complaint to assert a fraud claim and remove all preempted claims. Plaintiffs have filed a fully compliant amended complaint that sets forth a state law claim for fraudulent misrepresentation and omits any claims that are dependent upon a federal labor contract. (Doc. No. 26 .) Havi ng reviewed plaintiffs' amended complaint, and recognizing that there is not complete diversity of parties or some other basis for federal jurisdiction, the Court remands this matter to the Summit County Court of Common Pleas. Judge Sara Lioi on 10/3/2014. (P,J)
