July 22, 2020 ALIAS Summons Issued as to Defendant Modern Bank N.A.. (jg, )
July 21, 2020 Filing 59 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: In light of the filing of the First Amended Complaint, R. 53, Cross River Bank's dismissal motion #43 and Wintrust's dismissal motion #49 are terminated. Both of those Defendants have refiled the dismissal motions #55 #57 , but there is substantial overlap between the motions, and there is every reason to believe that when the Modern Bank Defendants are served and respond, they too will present similar arguments (and probably the Bank of America Defendants are planning a similar dismissal motion). So the Court orders as follows: the dismissal motions #55 #57 are terminated without prejudice, and the response deadline is suspended (the Bank of America Defendants also need not respond for now). The service deadline on the Modern Bank Defendants is 07/30/2020, based on the 04/30/2020 filing of the complaint. So the Plaintiff must make haste in accomplishing service, or file an extension motion explaining its diligent efforts. After the Modern Bank Defendants are served, the Court will set a dismissal-motion schedule that calls for a single joint brief (which may also include individualized arguments), a single joint response, and a single joint reply. The status hearing of 09/18/2020 is accelerated to 08/14/2020 at 8:30 a.m., but to track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called). The prior status-report deadline of 09/08/2020 is vacated for now. The Clerk's Office shall terminate the voluntarily dismissed defendants, namely, Retail Capital LLC d/b/a Credibly, BlueVine Capital, Inc., CRB Group, Inc., and Wintrust Financial Corporation. Lastly, on diversity of citizenship, again minimal diversity is almost surely satisfied. But the Plaintiff, although alleging membership in the LLC this time, alleges that its sole member is a person who is a "resident" of North Carolina. R. 53, para. 1. It is **citizenship**as distinct from residencythat matters. Hunter v. Amin, 583 F.3d 486, 491 (7th Cir. 2009). By 07/27/2020, the Plaintiff shall file a Second Jurisdictional Statement that alleges the citizenship of the sole member. Emailed notice (mw, )

Chang: Although the agreed extension motion of Defendants Bank of America Corp. and Bank of America N.A. to answer #39 is granted from 06/26/2020 to 08/31/2020, the motion should not have been notice for presentment under the Fourth Amended General Order 20-0012, para. 11, let alone on two business days' notice (Judge Chang's Case Management Procedures ordinarily sets a three business days' notice period).

June 4, 2020 Filing 36 NOTICE of Voluntary Dismissal by A.D. Sims, LLC of Defendant Wintrust Financial Corporation Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a)(1)(A)(i) (Popok, Michael)
June 1, 2020 Filing 35 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: After reviewing the complaint, the Court orders the following jurisdictional inquiry. The complaint relies on CAFA minimal-diversity jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. 1332(d). Plaintiff alleges that it is an Illinois LLC with its principal place of business located in Cook County, Illinois. But an LLC's citizenship for purposes of diversity jurisdiction depends on the citizenship of its members. Wise v. Wachovia Securities, LLC, 450 F.3d 265, 267 (7th Cir. 2006) (discussing citizenship of LLCs). There is no allegation in the complaint identifying all of the members of A.D. Sims, LLC or their citizenship. On the defendant-side, the members of Modern Bank Management, LLC and their respective citizenships are similarly not identified. Moreover, for any party that is a corporation, both the state of incorporation and the state of the principal place of business must be identified. Thomas v. Guardsmark, LLC, 487 F.3d 531, 533 (7th Cir. 2007). So Plaintiff must identify the principal place of business for Wintrust Financial Corporation, Wintrust Bank B.A., Bank of America, Co., and Bank of America N.A., as well as the state of incorporation for Wintrust Bank B.A. It does not take much to have minimal diversity, but as it stands, it is best to clarify the citizenships of the parties. On or before 06/15/2020, Plaintiff shall either file a Jurisdictional Statement setting forth minimal diversity, or otherwise file a memorandum explaining why the current complaint sufficiently alleges jurisdiction.
