November 21, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 7 ***SELECTED PARTIES*** MEMO ENDORSEMENT on re: #6 Letter, filed by Juan Ramos, Migdalia Ramos, Willy Ramierezolivo, Battaway Towing LLC. ENDORSEMENT: Defendants are ordered to file a redacted version of the endorsed letter on the docket by no later than Tuesday, November 22, 2022. The Court finds that this letter and the attached exhibits are judicial documents as they are directly relevant to the Court's duty to evaluate whether it has subject-matter jurisdiction over this case. See Lugosch v. Pyramid Co. of Onondaga, 435 F. 3d 110, 120 (2d Cir. 2006). Plaintiffs' confidentiality interests in protecting their medical privacy can be addressed by redacting information related to their medical treatment. The Court finds that the medical records, submitted under seal, are sufficient to establish that the jurisdictional amount in controversy requirement is met. See United Food & Comm. Workers Union, Local 919, AFL-CIO v. CenterMark Props. Meridien Sq. Inc., 30 F.3d 298, 305-06 (2d Cir. 1994) (courts may consider supplementary submissions to determine whether the amount in controversy requirement is met where the pleadings are, by themselves, insufficient). The Clerk of Court is respectfully directed to docket this endorsement with viewing restricted to the Court and to the parties. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Valerie E. Caproni on 11/21/2022) (va)

November 18, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 5 ORDER: IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that this case will be remanded to the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of Bronx on Tuesday, November 22, 2022, unless Defendants provide the Court, by no later than Monday, November 21, 2022, with further evidence that the amount in controversy requirement is met. Defendants' conclusory statement that their review of the medical records establishes that the amount in controversy requirement is met does not establish that the case is removable. While courts may look to medical records to determine whether the amount in controversy is met, such records must be part of the record in the case. See United Food & Comm. Workers Union, Local 919, AFL-CIO v. CenterMark Properties Meridien Sq., Inc., 30 F.3d 298, 305 (2d Cir. 1994). In order to establish the case is removable, the Defendants must submit "supplementary submissions or estimates" establishing that the amount of damages sought is in excess of the jurisdictional limit.
