October 13, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 4 ORDER: PLAINTIFFS ALLEGE THAT THERE IS SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION BASED ON DIVERSITY OF CITIZENSHIP. HOWEVER, THE COMPLAINT DOES NOT ADEQUATELY DEMONSTRATE THE COURT'S SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION BECAUSE IT DOES NOT ALLEGE THE CITIZENSHIP OF EACH OF THE MEMBERS OF THE LLC PLAINTIFF OR OF THE LLC DEFENDANT. FOR PURPOSES OF DIVERSITY JURISDICTION, A LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY'S PLACE OF REGISTRATION AND PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS ARE IRRELEVANT. INSTEAD, AN LLC HAS THE CITIZENSHIP OF EACH OF ITS MEMBERS. HERE, FOR EXAMPLE, IF ANY OF THE MEMBERS OF IZMACO INVESTMENTS, LLC, IS A CITIZEN OF NEW YORK, THAT WOULD DESTROY DIVERSITY OF CITIZENSHIP. TO PROPERLY INVOKE THIS COURT'S DIVERSITY JURISDICTION, PLAINTIFF SHALL, ON OR BEFORE NOVEMBER 2, 2020, EITHER (1) SHOW CAUSE AS TO WHY ITS COMPLAINT SHOULD NOT BE DISMISSED FOR LACK OF SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION, OR (2) MOVE TO FILE AN AMENDED COMPLAINT THAT PROPERLY PLEADS JURISDICTION. IF PLAINTIFF FAILS TO DO SO, THIS ACTION MAY BE DISMISSED. SO ORDERED. (HEREBY ORDERED by Judge J. Paul Oetken) (Text Only Order) (Oetken, J.)
