State, 21 Cal. 3d 313, 319 (1978) (applying doctrine of equitable tolling when a plaintiff first pursued their claim in federal court and then re-filed instate court after federal court declined to assert jurisdiction over the claim). Because the Court concludes that it lacks subject matter jurisdiction over this action, the Court vacates the defaults entered against defendants Jonathan Todd Jackson and Ashley M. Germon.

September 17, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 7 MINUTE ORDER IN CHAMBERS - COURT ORDER by Judge Percy Anderson. Because the Complaint alleges the citizenship of Defendant Fameoulous Ent, LLC as if it were a corporation, rather than a limited liability company, the Complaint has not properly alleged the citizenship of that party. "Absent unusual circumstances, a party seeking to invoke diversity jurisdiction should be able to allege affirmatively the actual citizenship of the relevant parties." Kanter, 265 F.3d at 857. As a result, Plaintiff's allegations are not sufficient to invoke this Court's diversity jurisdiction. Accordingly, the Court dismisses Plaintiff's Complaint for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. A district court may, and should, grant leave to amend when it appears that subject matter jurisdiction may exist, even though the complaint inadequately alleges jurisdiction. See 28 U.S.C. 1653; Trentacosta v. Frontier Pacific Aircraft Industries, Inc., 813 F.2d 1553, 1555 (9th Cir. 1987). Therefore, the Court grants Plaintiff leave to amend the Complaint to establish federal subject matter jurisdiction. Plaintiff'sFirst Amended Complaint, if any, is to be filed by September 30, 2019.
