Filing 2 ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE WHY CASE SHOULD NOT BE REMANDED TO STATE COURT. Defendants have filed a notice of removal stating that they are limited liability companies and that their members are "residents of the State of Texas or the State of Delaware." Doc. #1 at 2. The notice of removal is deficient in at least two respects. First, the notice alleges only the residency rather than the domicile of the defendants' members. But diversity jurisdiction is determined by reference to domicile rather than to residency, and "residence alone is insufficient to establish domicile for jurisdictional purposes." Van Buskirk v. United Grp. of Companies, Inc., 935 F.3d 49, 54 (2d Cir. 2019). Second, the notice fails to identify the names of the defendants' members or to state with precision their State of citizenship. See Bayerische Landesbank, New York Branch v. Aladdin Capital Mgmt. LLC, 692 F.3d 42, 49 (2d Cir. 2012). It is not sufficient for the defendants to allege that its members are citizens of one State or another State; they must allege facts to precisely identify and show the citizenship State(s) of each member of the limited liability company defendants. The defendants may file a response to this order to show cause on or before April 27, 2021 with facts that clearly establish a basis for federal jurisdiction. The Court intends to remand this case to state court in the absence of a timely and complete response. It is so ordered. Signed by Judge Jeffrey A. Meyer on 4/20/2021. (DeBot, B.) |
