    FOR PLAINTIFF-APPELLEE:                             Charles B. Manuel, Jr., Daniel S. Goldstein,

    * Judge John G. Koeltl, of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New
    York, sitting by designation.
                                                     Shiboleth LLP, New York, NY.

FOR DEFENDANT-APPELLANT:                             Philippe Marc Buhannic, pro se, Verbier,
                                                     Switzerland.

       Appeal from an order of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New

York (Sullivan, J.).

       UPON DUE CONSIDERATION, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND

DECREED that the appeal is DISMISSED for lack of jurisdiction.

       Appellant Philippe Buhannic, proceeding pro se, appeals the District Court’s order denying

his second motion for reconsideration of an order remanding this action to the New York State

Supreme Court. We assume the parties’ familiarity with the underlying facts, the procedural

history of the case, and the issues on appeal.

       We conclude that we lack jurisdiction over this appeal. When a district court remands a

case based on a timely raised defect in the notice of removal, the remand order “is not reviewable

on appeal or otherwise.” 28 U.S.C. § 1447(d); see Things Remembered, Inc. v. Petrarca, 516

U.S. 124, 127–28 (1995) (“As long as a district court’s remand is based on a timely raised defect

in removal procedure or on lack of subject-matter jurisdiction—the grounds for remand recognized

by § 1447(c)—a court of appeals lacks jurisdiction to entertain an appeal of the remand order under

§ 1447(d).”). Here, the District Court remanded the action after finding that the notice of removal

did not contain sufficient facts to demonstrate federal subject-matter jurisdiction or to show that

the notice of removal was timely filed; that the state court pleadings were not attached; and that

the notice was not signed by Buhannic’s co-defendant. Because these defects constitute “grounds

for remand recognized by § 1447(c),” Things Remembered, 516 U.S. at 127, we lack jurisdiction

to review the merits of Buhannic’s appeal.
       We have considered all of Buhannic’s arguments with respect to jurisdiction and conclude

that they are without merit. Accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED for lack of jurisdiction.


                                           FOR THE COURT:
                                           Catherine O’Hagan Wolfe, Clerk of Court
