2009-07-17 8 0 MINUTES OF IN CHAMBERS ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE RE DISMISSAL FOR LACK OF SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION by Judge Dale S. Fischer: This action was filed in this Court on April 28, 2009. However, it appears the Court may lack subject matter jurisdiction for the reason: Jurisdiction is asserted on the basis of diversity jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1332. Some of the parties are corporations. The complaint is deficient because: the jurisdictional averment by plaintiff is patently insufficient under 28 U.S.C. § 1332(c). Accordingly, the Court orders plaintiff to show cause in writing no later than August 27, 2009 why this action should not be dismissed without prejudice for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. If plaintiff requires additional discovery to establish the citizenship of one or more defendants, plaintiff may request additional time to engage in jurisdictional discovery, provided that such a request is made on or before the above deadline. Courtesy copies are to be delivered to Chambers. Failure to respond by the above date will result in the Court dismissing this action. (shb) (Entered: 07/20/2009)
