ORDER (by docket entry only): Defendant's Notice of Removal (Dkt. 1) does not show the Court has diversity jurisdiction over this case. It establishes neither the requisite amount in controversy nor diversity of citizenship (even considering Defendant's Notice of Member Citizenship (Dkt.11), which simply identifies Defendant's member LLC and then vaguely claims "[n]one of [that] LLC's members or constituent entities are citizens of Georgia."). The Court ORDERS Defendant to show cause, no later than August 21, 2023, why this case should not be remanded for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. The Court ORDERS Plaintiff to file a response brief no later than September 5, 2023. If Defendant does not establish subject matter jurisdiction or otherwise comply with this Order, the Court will remand this case to state court. Ordered by Judge Michael L. Brown on 8/7/2023. (jpk)
