October 31, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 4 NOTICE AND ORDER: Defendant Albertsons, Inc. filed a #1 Notice of Removal on October 26, 2023, alleging that this Court has subject matter jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. 1332. Plaintiff Shannon West is adequately alleged to be domiciled in and a citizen of Louisiana, and Albertsons is adequately alleged to be Delaware corporation with its principal place of business in Idaho. R. Doc. 1, paras. 8-9. However, the Notice of Removal does not allege the citizenship of named defendant Zurich American Insurance Company, and the allegations in the Petition are insufficient to establish Zurich's citizenship for diversity purposes because neither Zurich's place of incorporation nor principal place of business are alleged as required by 28 U.S.C. 1332(c). R. Doc. 1-1, at para. 1(A). Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that by no later than November 7, 2023, Albertsons shall file a motion for leave to file an amended Notice of Removal that properly alleges the citizenship of all parties. To avoid the risk of confusion, the proposed amended Notice of Removal should include all Albertsons' numbered allegations, as revised, supplemented, and/or amended. This case will be allowed to proceed if jurisdiction is adequately established, as citizenship has been adequately alleged for Plaintiff and Albertsons, and sufficient information to establish amount in controversy has been provided. Signed by Magistrate Judge Erin Wilder-Doomes on 10/31/2023. (This is a TEXT ENTRY ONLY. There is no hyperlink or PDF document associated with this entry.)(BLR)
