ORDER

D.P. MARSHALL, Jr., District Judge.

Wright's unopposed motion for voluntary dismissal of his federal claim, No. 8, is granted. That claim is dismissed without prejudice. The Court declines to exercise its supplemental jurisdiction over Wright's remaining state law claims. 28 U.S.C. § 1367(c)(3); Lindsey v. Dillard's, Inc., 306 F.3d 596, 598-99 (8th Cir. 2002). The Court remands those claims to the Pulaski County Circuit Court. Wright's pendent claims aren't subject to the thirty-day rule for remand, 28 U.S.C. § 1447(c), because there was no defect in removal procedure. Lindsey, 306 F.3d at599. The Court has subject matter jurisdiction, it simply chooses not to exercise it. 28 U.S.C. § 1367(c). The Court will not impose conditions on remand, given Wright's good-faith a band on ment of any FLSA claims.

So Ordered.
