September 15, 2021 Filing 31 NOTICE by Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as Trustee re #1 Complaint, 30 Order; NOTICE OF REMOVAL (AMENDED). (Attachments: #1 Exhibit A - FLIP Sunbiz Filing and Articles of Dissolution, #2 Exhibit B - DBNTC Corp Exist Records)(Norrow, Beth)
September 10, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 30 ENDORSED ORDER: Defendant removed this case on the basis of diversity of citizenship. Yet, the notice of removal fails to sufficiently establish Plaintiff's citizenship. The notice of removal merely states that Plaintiff is "is a dissolved Florida limited liability company with its principal place of business in Bellaire Bluffs, Florida." (Doc. #1). But "a limited liability company is a citizen of any state of which a member of the company is a citizen." Rolling Greens MHP, L.P. v. Comcast SCH Holdings L.L.C., 374 F.3d 1020, 1022 (11th Cir. 2004). Thus, "[t]o sufficiently allege the citizenships of" a limited liability company, "a party must list the citizenships of all the members of the limited liability company." Id. Accordingly, to establish that complete diversity exists, Defendant must file an amended notice of removal listing the citizenships of all the members of Plaintiff by September 17, 2021. Signed by Judge Virginia M. Hernandez Covington on 9/10/2021. (KMH)
