Filing 15 NOTICE by Magno A. Arana, Magnum Express, LLC (Citizenship Statement) (Mansfield, Lauren) |
Filing 14 MOTION for Extension of Time to file statement regarding citizenship by Magno A. Arana, Magnum Express, LLC. (Mansfield, Lauren) |
Filing 13 ORDER. The #1 notice of removal does not appear to state an adequate basis for the Court's subject matter jurisdiction. "If subject matter jurisdiction is lacking and no party has called the matter to the court's attention, the court has the duty to dismiss the action sua sponte." Durant, Nichols, Houston, Hodgson & Cortese-Costa P.C. v. Dupont, 565 F.3d 56, 62 (2d Cir. 2009). The Defendants assert that the Court has jurisdiction over this case under 28 U.S.C. 1332 because there is complete diversity of citizenship between the parties. The notice of removal states that Magnum Express, LLC is a "New Jersey corportation with its princip[al] place of business in New Jersey...." (ECF No. 1 at 2 2.) The citizenship of a limited liability company is not determined by its state of incorporation and principal place of business, but by the citizenship of its members. See Handelsman v. Bedford Vill. Assocs. Ltd. P'ship, 213 F.3d 48, 51-52 (2d Cir. 2000) ("[F]or purposes of diversity jurisdiction, a limited liability company has the citizenship of its members.") (internal citation omitted). Within 14 days, the Defendants shall file a response on the docket stating the citizenship of each member of Magnum Express, LLC. If any member Magnum Express, LLC is itself an LLC, the plaintiff must also state the citizenship of each member of that LLC. Signed by Judge Michael P. Shea on 5/24/2019. (Guevremont, Nathan) |
