ORDER
JOSEPH N. LaPLANTE, District Judge.
The case is dismissed. As the case was not yet filed in state court at the time of the attempted removal, it is not "pending" there. 28 U.S.C. § 1441(a) (limiting removal to "pending" civil actions "brought in a State court"). "It is axiomatic that a case cannot be removed before its inception."
