Trial Court Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT WESTERN DISTRICT OF LOUISIANA SHREVEPORT DIVISION NORTHWOOD SELF STORAGE, LLC CIVIL ACTION NO. 24-cv-1451 VERSUS JUDGE EDWARDS LIBERTY MUTUAL INSURANCE CO, ET AL MAGISTRATE JUDGE HORNSBY

MEMORANDUM ORDER Defendants Northwood Self Storage and Safeco Insurance Company removed this case based on an assertion of diversity jurisdiction. The defendants filed Diversity Jurisdiction Disclosure Statements (Doc. 2 & 3) and alleged that Northwood is a “company” organized in Massachusetts with its principal place of business in Massachusetts and that Safeco is a “company” organized in New Hampshire with its principal place of business is Massachusetts. The allegations suggest that the defendants are corporations, but that is not clear. Safeco and Northwood must file, no later than December 6, 2024, amended Diversity Jurisdiction Disclosure Statements that allege, with specificity, the type of entity of each company. If both defendants are corporations, the allegations regarding their citizenship are sufficient. If either defendant is an LLC or other form of unincorporated entity, the statement must identify each member of the entity and their citizenship. See Settlement Funding, L.L.C. v. Rapid Settlements, Ltd.,
