"Because the Complaint alleges the citizenship of the LLC defendants as if they were corporations, rather than as limited liability companies, the Complaint has not properly alleged the citizenship of those parties. "Absent unusual circumstances, a party seeking to invoke diversity jurisdiction should be able to allege affirmatively the actual citizenship of the relevant parties. “As a result, Plaintiffs’ allegations are not sufficient to invoke this Court’s diversity jurisdiction.” — Percy Anderson, district judge for the U.S. District Court in the official ruling.
Canelo Alvarez now has until September 28 to file a First Amended Complaint. This is standard practice in most lawsuits. You start big and try to get people to settle, if they call your b.s. you amend and bring suit. If Canelo really wants to sue, and this isn’t some bluff then his attorneys will amend, refine and ask for quick trial dates.
