ORDER
TIMOTHY D. DeGIUSTI, District Judge.
Before the Court is Plaintiffs Motion to Remand [Doc. No. 11], which raises both procedural and jurisdictional challenges to the removal of this action from state court. Plaintiff challenges whether the Notice of Removal was timely filed by Defendant Liberty Insurance Corporation (“Liberty”), whether Liberty waived its right of removal, and whether its allegations and evidence of fraudulent joinder of the non-diverse defendants are sufficient. Liberty has timely opposed the Motion, which is fully briefed and at issue.
