November 13, 2023 Opinion or Order ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE. Defendants are ordered to show cause by 11/20/2023 why the case should not be remanded to state court for failure to properly assert diversity jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. 1332. First, under well-established authority, the fact that plaintiff has set forth three causes of action, the claim for each of which "exceeds the jurisdiction of the lower courts," is not a sufficient basis to infer more than $75,000 in controversy. See Ramos v. Golden Touch Transp. of NY, Inc., No. 21-cv-5676, 2022 WL 4551567, at *3 (E.D.N.Y. Sept. 29, 2022); see also Moltner v. Starbucks Coffee Co., 624 F.3d 34, 37-38 (2d Cir. 2010). No more is it that plaintiff has three legal theories all seeking the same relief, as plaintiff can recover only once. Second, defendant has failed to establish fraudulent joinder. See Cleary v. Boston Scientific Corp., 06-cv-3423, 2006 WL 2689815, at *3-4 (E.D.N.Y. Sept. 18, 2006). Ordered by Judge Brian M. Cogan on 11/13/2023. (PW)
