ORDER: The court ordered defendants to show cause why the court should not recommend that the district judge remand this case for lack of subject matter jurisdiction--namely, because defendants did not adequately plead complete diversity of citizenship between the parties. (ECF 13.) Defendants have now responded to the order to show cause. (ECF 15.) After reviewing the response, the court is satisfied that defendants have sufficiently alleged facts that the parties are completely diverse for subject matter jurisdiction purposes under 28 U.S.C. 1332. Signed by Magistrate Judge Angel D. Mitchell on 2/13/2023. (This is a TEXT ENTRY ONLY. There is no.pdf document associated with this entry.)(ht)
