September 14, 2026 Opinion or Order Filing 11 ORDER requiring Rule 7.1(a)(2) Disclosure Statements. Rule 7.1(a)(2) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure requires parties in a diversity action to file disclosure statements naming and identifying the citizenship of every individual or entity whose citizenship is attributed to them. Accordingly, by September 29, 2026, all parties are ordered to file Rule 7.1(a)(2) disclosure statements. As a reminder, the citizenship of a corporation is determined by both the state of incorporation and the state where its principal place of business is located. 28 U.S.C. 1332(c)(1); Newsome v. Gallacher, 722 F.3d 1257, 1267 (10th Cir. 2013). An LLC takes the citizenship of each of its members, not the state in which it was organized or maintains its principal place of business. Siloam Springs Hotel, L.L.C. v. Century Sur. Co., 781 F.3d 1233, 1237-38 (10th Cir. 2015). Signed by Magistrate Judge Brooks G. Severson on 9/14/2026. (This is a TEXT ENTRY ONLY.
