| Filing 4 Supplemental Jurisdictional Statement STATEMENT by Brian Urlacher (Karamanis, James) |
| Filing 3 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: Plaintiff is ordered to show cause by 2/9/24 why this case should not be dismissed for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. The court has reviewed the complaint, which invokes this court's diversity jurisdiction. The complaint does not sufficiently allege the citizenship of the plaintiff or of defendants Steven Motarjeme, M.D., and Eric Castro, M.D., however. The complaint alleges that plaintiff "is an individual and is a resident of Arizona." It also alleges that each individual defendant "is an individual and a citizen/resident of the State of Illinois." But it is citizenship (which is to say domicile), not "residence," that matters for determining whether the parties are completely diverse. See Guar. Nat. Title Co. v. J.E.G. Assocs., 101 F.3d 57, 59 (7th Cir. 1996). These allegations therefore do not provide adequate information for the court to assess whether the parties are completely diverse. By 2/9/24, plaintiff must submit a jurisdictional statement that properly alleges the citizenship of each party with sufficient particularity for the court to determine whether the parties are completely diverse. To the extent that information about defendants' domicile is within defendants' possession rather than plaintiff's, defendants must provide that information to plaintiff in good faith for inclusion in the jurisdictional statement to allow the court to assess whether subject matter jurisdiction exists. If plaintiff does not submit a jurisdictional statement, or if the allegations contained in plaintiff's statement remain deficient, this case may be dismissed for lack of subject matter jurisdiction.
