January 13, 2016 Opinion or Order Filing 32 DECISION & ORDER: before the Court are the parties responses to the # 24 Order to Show Cause. The Court finds that jurisdiction continues to exist despite transfer of the assets in question from the FDIC to the Phoenix NPL, LLC. As this finding is sufficient to satisfy the Court that jurisdiction to hear the case exists, the Court will not address the Defendants alternative argument that jurisdiction exists because FDIC remains as a counterclaim Defendant and jurisdiction persists under 12 U. S.C. 1819. The Court finds that, since Phoenix has been substituted for the FDIC as Plaintiff, addressing the suitability of any counterclaims that may be filed against FDIC would be to address an issue not presently before the Court. The Court finds that subject matter jurisdiction over this matter continues to exist. The Defendants are directed to file an answer and/or any counterclaims to the Amended Complaint within twenty-one days of the date of this Order. Signed by Senior Judge Thomas J. McAvoy on 1/13/2016.
