No. 16-1073
Decision Date: 
September 1, 2016
Federal District: 
N.D. Ill., E. Div.
Holding: 
Affirmed

Dist. Ct. did not err in granting plaintiff’s motion to remand to state court instant breach of contract claim that had been removed to federal court, where contract between parties contained service of suit clause that allowed plaintiff absolute discretion to chose forum for litigating instant matter. Moreover, Ct. rejected defendant’s claim that its right to remove instant case was not waivable, or that presence of arbitration clause in contract rendered service of suit clause ambiguous and unenforceable.
