United States Supreme Court

Upon remand of a case to state court, absent unusual circumstances, attorney's fees should not be awarded under 28 U.S.C. section 1447(c) when the removing party has an objectively reasonable basis for removal; conversely, where no objectively reasonable basis exists, fees should be awarded.
