Question by answer?: How do you change a complaint filed in a New York State Civil Court and make it fileable in a Federal Court?
I sued my former employer and raised some Constitutional issues. My employer made a “notice of removal” and had the case moved from New York State Court to Federal Court (US District Court). What do I have to do to the complaint to file it in Federal Court. I have multiple causes of action including a Section 1983 action, breach of contract, tortious interference and I am asking for specific performance of my contract. PLease help
