Here is another case wherein there was a failure to properly stipulate to the amount of damages involved in the case and thus, ended up having to litigate his case in Federal Court, rather than the State Court in which the lawsuit was filed.
The case is from the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division, and is styled, Olga Rodriguez v. State Farm Lloyds.
Olga filed her claim against State Farm in State District Court and State Farm timely removed the case to Federal Court.
