1 2 3 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 4 DISTRICT OF NEVADA 5 6 RICARDO MUNOZ, Case No. 2:23-cv-00672-JCM-NJK

7 Plaintiff, ORDER

8 v.

9 FORWARD AIR, INC., et al., 10 Defendants. 11 On May 10, 2023, the Court ordered Defendants to file a second amended certificate of 12 interested parties fully identifying the citizenship of each party and entity attributed to them. 13 Docket No. 7. Defendants have now filed a second amended certificate of interested parties. 14 Docket No. 10. The amended certificate of interested parties identifies Prologis USLV Operating 15 Partnership, L.P. as being the managing member of Prologis USLV SubREIT 4, LLC, who is in 16 turn the sole member of Defendant KTR LV IV LLC See id. at 1-2. When a member of an LLC 17 is itself an LLC, the jurisdictional analysis requires identification of the citizenship of each “sub- 18 member” as well. See, e.g., Diamos v. Specialized Loan Serv. LLC,

, *2 (N.D. 19 Cal. July 7, 2014). Similarly, when a member/owner of an LLC is a non-corporate entity, the 20 jurisdictional analysis requires identifying the citizenship of any members or partners. See, e.g., 21 Johnson v. Columbia Props. Anchorage, LP,

(9th Cir. 2006) (internal citation 22 omitted). “[A] partnership is a citizen of all of the states of which its partners are citizens.”

23 Defendants’ second amended certificate of interested parties fails to identify the partners of 24 Prologis USLV Operating Partnership, L.P. or those partners’ citizenship. See Docket No. 10. 25 The Court, therefore, cannot determine based on the current record whether the invocation of 26 diversity jurisdiction is proper. 27 28 1 Accordingly, Defendants are hereby ORDERED to file a third amended certificate of interested parties that lists the name and citizenship of each member/owner of Defendant KTR LV 3], IV LLC, no later than May 19, 2023. 4 IT IS SO ORDERED. 5 Dated: May 17, 2023 □□ eo 6 United Bs Magistrate Judge , 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28
