A judge on Tuesday denied former President Donald Trump's request to move a Colorado case aimed at removing him from the state's 2024 ballot to federal court.
In a 4-page order, Chief U.S. District Judge Philip A. Brimmer sent the lawsuit back to a state court in Denver County where it was filed last week by a group of six voters.
lololol"Because Secretary Griswold accepted service before Mr. Trump removed the case and she did not join in or consent to removal, the Court finds that removal was defective," Brimmer wrote.

Shortly before Brimmer's order, lawyers for Trump said in a filing that the former president "withdraws" his removal notice and "does not object to a remand to state court," while also arguing that Trump did not need Griswold's consent in seeking to move the case. Brimmer disputed that argument in his order.
