October 7, 2021 Opinion or Order ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE. Plaintiff is ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE by 10/14/2021 why this action should not be dismissed for failure to invoke this Court's subject matter jurisdiction. First, residence does not determine citizenship and plaintiff has pled only the residence of defendants. See 147-149 McCarren, LLC v. Holding De Gestion Turistica MIJ Spain S.L., No. 21-CV-950, 2021 WL 878557, at *2 (E.D.N.Y. Mar. 9, 2021). Second, the citizenship of an LLC is not where it has its principal place of business or state of formation. See Am. Empire Surplus Lines Ins. Co. v. Clearview SM, Inc., No. 21-cv-4230, 2021 WL 3206930, at *1 (E.D.N.Y. July 29, 2021); 136-61 Roosevelt LLC v. Starbucks Corp., No. 21-cv-3560, 2021 WL 2779287, at *1 (E.D.N.Y. July 2, 2021).
