Date Filed Document Text
June 16, 2023 Opinion or Order ORDER: Defendants failed to file a revised Rule 7.1 disclosure statement by 5/23/2023 as reflected in the Court's order dated 5/16/2023. In addition, Plaintiff failed to file a Rule 7.1 statement by 5/18/2023 as reflected in the Court's order dated 5/11/2023. The parties are each given one final opportunity until 6/23/2023 to file disclosure statements in compliance with Rule 7.1. Failure to comply may lead to the imposition of sanctions or dismissal of the case for failure to demonstrate subject matter jurisdiction, or both. So Ordered by Magistrate Judge Sanket J. Bulsara on 6/16/2023. (IS)
May 16, 2023 Opinion or Order ORDER: Defendants filed a Rule 7.1 disclosure statement #4 identifying United Parcel Service, Inc. ("UPS") as "an Ohio corporation." That is not sufficient to infer that this Court has subject matter jurisdiction over this case. "For diversity purposes, a corporation is considered a citizen of the state in which it is incorporated and the state of its principal place of business." Bayerische Landesbank, N.Y. Branch v. Aladdin Cap. Mgmt. LLC, 692 F.3d 42, 48 (2d Cir. 2012); see also 28 U.S.C. 1332(c)(1). Here, Defendants' disclosure statement fails to identify UPS's principal place of business. Defendants shall file a revised disclosure statement, including information about both UPS's place of incorporation and principal place of business, by 5/23/2023. So Ordered by Magistrate Judge Sanket J. Bulsara on 5/16/2023. (IS)
May 12, 2023 Filing 4 Corporate Disclosure Statement by Miles Paul James, United Parcel Service, Inc. identifying Corporate Parent United Parcel Service, Inc. for United Parcel Service, Inc.. (Kritzer, David)
May 11, 2023 Opinion or Order ORDER: The parties failed to file their Rule 7.1 disclosure statements by 5/2/2023 as reflected in the Court's order dated 4/25/2023. The newly amended Rule 7.1, which became effective on December 1, 2022, provides: "In an action in which jurisdiction is based on diversity under 28 U.S.C. 1332(a), a party or intervenor must...file a disclosure statement." Fed. R. Civ. P. 7.1(a)(2). "The statement must name--and identify the citizenship of--every individual or entity whose citizenship is attributed to that party or intervenor: when the action is filed in or removed to federal court[.]" Id. Counsel for both sides are directed to review the newly amended Rule 7.1, and file compliant statements by 5/18/2023. So Ordered by Magistrate Judge Sanket J. Bulsara on 5/11/2023. (IS)
April 25, 2023 Opinion or Order ORDER: The parties are reminded to file their required Rule 7.1 disclosure statements, because in this case, the alleged subject matter jurisdiction is based upon diversity of citizenship. Failure to file the required disclosure statements by 5/2/2023 may lead to sanctions, including dismissal of the action, entry of default, or other appropriate remedies. So Ordered by Magistrate Judge Sanket J. Bulsara on 4/25/2023. (IS)
