ORDER1

SHERI POLSTER CHAPPELL, District Judge.

This matter comes before the Court on review of the docket. Service Insurance Company filed a Notice of Removal indicating that this Court has federal question jurisdiction. Upon review, the Court is not convinced. The Court also takes issue with the lack of consent from Defendant Naples Insurance Agency, Inc. Since Service Insurance has the burden of proving jurisdiction at the time of removal, it shall file a brief explaining whether this Court has proper federal question jurisdiction. Service Insurance should reframe from citing to case law outside of the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals unless citing to the United States Supreme Court.

Accordingly, it is now

ORDERED:

1. Service Insurance Company shall file an addendum brief to its Notice of Removal explaining whether this Court has federal question jurisdiction at the time of removal. This brief shall be no longer than ten (10) pages and shall be filed no later than June 3, 2014. 2. Failure to comply with this Order will result in this case being remanded to state court without further notice or delay.

DONE and ORDERED.
