United States Sixth Circuit
PETERS v. LINCOLN ELECTRIC CO., 00-3562
Plaintiff's deposition responses can constitute an "other paper" from which it may be ascertained the case is removable under federal question jurisdiction; thus, where complaint did not contain an ERISA claim, but deposition provided such a basis, removal was proper.
