Upon  the  filing  of  a  petition  for  removal,  after  proper
notice  and  in  due  form  accompanied  by  the  required
bond,  the  State  Court  ceases  to  have  any  jurisdiction
over  the  controversy  beyond  that  of  entering  a  formal
order  that  it  has  been  removed,  and  although  such  order
be  never  entered,  its  power  to  do  anything  further  in  the
case  is  at  an  end.  The  jurisdiction  of  the  Federal  Court
attaches  from  the  filing  of  the  transcript  of  the  record
therein,  and  it  must  determine  whether  the  removal
should  have  been  made.^^  In  those  cases  in  w^hich  the
petition  for  removal  is  in  the  first  instance  filed  in  the
Federal  Court,  as  it  must  be  when  removal  is  sought
on  the  ground  of  local  prejudice  or  influence,  or  under
section  33,  the  jurisdiction  of  the  State  Court  ceases  so
soon  as  the  writ  of  certiorari  or  of  habeas  corpus  cum
causa  has  been  served  upon  or  filed  in  the  State  Court
or  with  its  clerk.^®^
