Filing 91
** TEXT ONLY ORDER ** Cross motions for summary judgment are before the court, but the court can't consider them because neither motion establishes that the court has subject matter jurisdiction. Plaintiffs rely on 28 U.S.C. 1332 as their basis for jurisdiction, but they haven't shown complete diversity between plaintiffs and defendant, which is one of the requirements of the statute. Plaintiffs state in their proposed findings of fact that they are all citizens of Wisconsin because "each plaintiff is organized under the laws of the State of Wisconsin, and has its principal place of business in the State of Wisconsin." Dkt. #76 , 1. But one of the plaintiffs-- Jim Olson Ford Lincoln, LLC--is a limited liability company, which means that its citizenship is not determined by its principal place of business or the state it is organized under but rather by the citizenship of its members. Cosgrove v. Bartolotta, 150 F.3d 729, 731 (7th Cir. 1998). Plaintiffs don't identify those members or their citizenship, so the court can't determine whether there is complete diversity of citizenship. Plaintiffs may have until January 27, 2022, to submit supplemental evidence showing that the court has jurisdiction. If plaintiffs fail to respond by then, the court will dismiss the case. Signed by District Judge James D. Peterson on 1/20/2022. (voc)
