Legal Definition and Related Resources of Removal

In practise , removal means the transfer of the suit or cause from one court to another. The cases where the United States Court may acquire jurisdiction by the removal from state court where jurisdiction would not have attached if the suit had been originally brought therein are cases of jurisdiction over the parties and not of jurisdiction based on the subject matter of the litigation . See Cates v Allen, 149 U.S. 451,13 S.Ct. 883, 37 L.Ed. 804. The acts of Congress providing for removal to the federal court, before trial , of causes begun in the state courts, where they involve questions arising under the constitution and laws of the United States, are not an invasion of the sovereignty of the states. Tennessee v Davis, 100 U.S. 257, 25 L.Ed. 648. See 28 U. S. C. §1441.
