2013-03-03 | 3 | 0 | Order | ORDER re 2 Notice of Removal filed by Alan Cooper, Paul Godfread. Defendants' notice of removal does not adequately demonstrate diversity of citizenship exists among the parties. "In federal law citizenship means domicile, not residence." America's Best Inns, Inc. v. Best Inns of Abilene, L.P., 980 F.2d 1072, 1074 (7th Cir. 1992) (citing Gilbert v. David, 235 U.S. 561 (1915)). "[R]esidence may or may not demonstrate citizenship, which depends on domicile-that is to say, the state in which a person intends to live over the long run. An allegation of 'residence' is therefore deficient." Heinen v. Northrop Grumman Corp., 671 F.3d 669, 670 (7th Cir. 2012). Thus, defendants are directed to properly allege that diversity of citizenship exists among the parties by April 2, 2013 or this case shall be remanded. Signed by Chief Judge David R. Herndon on 3/3/2013. (mtm)THIS TEXT ENTRY IS AN ORDER OF THE COURT. NO FURTHER DOCUMENTATION WILL BE MAILED. (Entered: 03/03/2013) | ||
