August 14, 2020 Filing 6 SUMMONS Returned Executed by All Plaintiffs. All Defendants. (Cohen, Neal)
July 27, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 5 ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE returnable July 29, 2020. The Court has a duty to sua sponte consider its subject matter jurisdiction. Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(h)(3). Plaintiffs' Complaint alleges that the Court has jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1332 based on the diversity of the parties. Defendant Ebner Real Estate LLC, is identified as a limited liability company. The Court must consider the citizenship of all members of the LLC in determining whether diversity jurisdiction exists. See Siloam Springs Hotel, L.L.C. v. Century Sur. Co., 781 F.3d 1233, 1237 (10th Cir. 2015) ("only those state-created entities that are corporations, in the traditional understanding of that word, will be treated as a person for purposes of diversity jurisdiction"). As Plaintiffs are invoking jurisdiction of the federal court, they bear the burden of establishing that jurisdiction is proper. Merida Delgado v. Gonzales, 428 F.3d 916, 919 (10th Cir. 2005). As filed, Plaintiffs' Complaint is deficient in that, apart from an unsubstantiated bald assertion to that effect, it fails to establish the citizenship of every member of Defendant Ebner Real Estate LLC. Accordingly, Plaintiffs are ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE, by July 29, 2020, as to why the Court should not on its own motion dismiss this action based on Plaintiffs' failure to allege facts sufficient to show that the Court has diversity jurisdiction over this matter. SO ORDERED by Judge William J. Martinez on 7/27/2020. Text Only Entry (wjmsec, )
