                ORDER: Circuit Rule 3(c)(1), referencing Circuit Rule 28(a), requires an appellant to file a docketing statement that provides information concerning the district courts jurisdiction. If jurisdiction depends on diversity, the statement must identify the jurisdictional amount and the citizenship of each party to the litigation. If any party is a corporation, the rule specifically requires an appellant to identify both the state of incorporation and the state in which the corporation has its principal place of business. And if any party is an unincorporated association or partnership, the statement must identify the citizenship of all members. In the present case, appellant relies on diversity of citizenship for federal jurisdiction. But appellants Circuit Rule 3(c) docketing statement fails to provide the identity and citizenship of all the members of Shermar Oil, LLC. A limited liability company is not incorporated and so for purposes of general diversity jurisdiction has the citizenship of its members, not based on where it has its principal place of business or under which states law it is organized. See Hicklin Engineering, L.C. v. Bartell, 439 F.3d 346, 347-48 (7th Cir. 2006). And the citizenship of such an unincorporated association must be traced through however many layers of members there may be. See Meyerson v. Harrahs East Chicago Casino, 299 F.3d 616, 617 (7th Cir. 2002). Accordingly, appellant shall file an amended docketing statement that provides a complete statement of jurisdiction that includes the omitted information. The statement is due on or before December 18, 2025. JXK [6] [7492257] [25-3188] (AD) [Entered: 12/11/2025 01:21 PM]
