Rufe, District Judge.
*697Plaintiff Target Corporation initiated this civil action against Frederick Mutual Insurance Company and five other defendants1 in the Court of Common Pleas for Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Acting alone, Frederick Mutual removed the action to this Court. Target now moves to remand, arguing that removal was defective because: (1) Frederick Mutual failed to obtain consent of the other defendants prior to removal, and (2) the other defendants are citizens of Pennsylvania. For reasons set forth below, the Court will grant the motion to remand.
