W. KEITH WATKINS, Chief District Judge.
On March 14, 2016, the Magistrate Judge filed a Recommendation (Doc. # 28) to which Defendant timely filed an objection (Doc. # 29). Plaintiff Redflex Traffic Systems filed a response to Defendant's objection. (Doc. # 30.) The court has conducted an independent and de novo review of those portions of the Recommendation to which objection is made, see 28 U.S.C. § 636(b), and finds that Defendant's objection is without merit.
Accordingly, it is ORDERED as follows:
(1) Defendant's objection (Doc. # 29) is OVERRULED;
(2) The Recommendation (Doc. # 28) is ADOPTED;
(3) Plaintiffs' Motions to Remand (Docs. # 9, 13) are GRANTED for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction;
(4) This case is REMANDED to the Municipal Court of Phenix City, Alabama; and
(5) All remaining outstanding motions (Docs. # 4, 11, 21, 22, 23, 25) are DENIED as moot.
It is further ORDERED that Defendant's Motion for Disqualification (Doc. # 31) and Motion for Summary Judgment (Doc. # 35) are DENIED.
The Clerk of the Court is DIRECTED to take the steps necessary to effectuate the remand.
