    Case 2:13-cv-05090-MLCF-ALC Document 33 Filed 11/27/13 Page 1 of 7 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF LOUISIANA JONATHAN P. ROBICHEAUX CIVIL ACTION v. NO. 13-5090 JAMES D. CALDWELL, SECTION "F" LOUISIANA ATTORNEY GENERAL ORDER & REASONS Before the Court are defendant's motions to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction and to dismiss or transfer for improper venue. For the reasons that follow, the motion to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction is GRANTED, and the motion to dismiss or transfer for improper venue is DENIED as moot. Background This civil rights lawsuit challenges the constitutionality of Louisiana's ban on same-sex marriage and its unwillingness to recognize same-sex marriages entered into in other states. Jonathan Robicheaux married his same-sex partner in Iowa, but he lives in Orleans Parish, Louisiana. He alleges that Louisiana's defense of marriage amendment to the state constitution (La. Const. art. 12, § 15) and Article 3520 of the Louisiana Civil Code (which decrees that same-sex marriage violates Louisiana's strong public policy and precludes recognition of any such marriage contract from 1 Case 2:13-cv-05090-MLCF-ALC Document 33 Filed 11/27/13 Page 2 of 7 another state) violate his federal constitutional rights.1 Robicheaux first brought this suit alone, but has since amended his complaint to include his partner, Derek Penton, and another same-sex couple who were also married in Iowa, but now live in Louisiana, Nadine and Courtney Blanchard. The plaintiffs sued the Louisiana Attorney General James "Buddy" Caldwell, the only defendant in this lawsuit.

    Case: 4:13-cv-00206-CDP Doc. #: 186 Filed: 07/06/15 Page: 1 of 9 PageID #: <pageID> UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF MISSOURI EASTERN DIVISION DON M. DOWNING, et al., ) ) Plaintiffs, ) ) vs. ) Case No. 4:13CV206 CDP ) GOLDMAN PHIPPS PLLC, et al., ) ) Defendants. ) MEMORANDUM AND ORDER This case is one of several arising from disputes over fees among lawyers representing groups of plaintiffs in the genetically modified rice multi-district litigation that took place in this District. The plaintiffs here are lawyers who paid for common-benefit litigation services and materials in that litigation, and whose clients contributed to a Common Benefit Trust established to compensate the lawyers who performed common-benefit services. They bring unjust enrichment and quantum meruit claims against lawyers who represented clients in related state court cases and who did not contribute to the payment of the common-benefit services. The lawyer defendants are based in Texas, Arkansas and Louisiana. They move to transfer the case under 28 U.S.C. § 1404, arguing that plaintiffs’ claims should proceed separately in the various districts in which the defendants’ Case: 4:13-cv-00206-CDP Doc. #: 186 Filed: 07/06/15 Page: 2 of 9 PageID #: <pageID> witnesses and documents are located. Because I find that the transfers will not serve the interests of justice, I will deny the motion. Background Litigation began in 2006 after Bayer’s genetically modified rice was found in the commercial rice supply. Thousands of rice producers and non-producers filed suit against various Bayer entities in federal and state courts.

    Case 3:15-cv-00504-BAJ-EWD Document 2 07/31/15 Page 1 of 3 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT MIDDLE DISTRICT OF LOUISIANA CAPITOL STEEL ERECTORS, LLC CIVIL ACTION VERSUS NUMBER 15-504-JWD-SCR THE KANSAS CITY SOUTHERN RAILWAY COMPANY ORDER TO AMEND NOTICE OF REMOVAL Defendant The Kansas City Southern Railway Company removed this case asserting subject matter jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1332, diversity of citizenship. Defendant alleged in its Notice of Removal that it is a “foreign corporation registered in and established under the laws of the State of Missouri,” and plaintiff Capitol Steel Erectors, LLC, “is a Louisiana corporation.”1 When jurisdiction depends on citizenship, the citizenship of each party must be distinctly and affirmatively alleged in accordance with § 1332(a) and (c).2 Under § 1332(c)(1) a corporation is deemed to be a citizen of any state in which it is incorporated, and of the state in which it has its principal place of business. For purposes of diversity, 1 Record document number 1. 2 Stafford v. Mobil Oil Corp., 945 F.2d 803, 804 (5th Cir. 1991), citing, McGovern v. American Airlines, Inc., 511 F.2d 653, 654 (5th Cir. 1975)(quoting 2A Moore’s Federal Practice ¶ 8.10, at 1662). Case 3:15-cv-00504-BAJ-EWD Document 2 07/31/15 Page 2 of 3 the citizenship of a limited liability company is determined by considering the citizenship of all its members.3 Thus, to properly allege the citizenship of a limited liability company, the party asserting jurisdiction must identify each of the entity’s members and the citizenship of each member in accordance with the requirements of § 1332(a) and (c).4 Defendant’s jurisdictional allegation as to its own citizenship and the citizenship of the plaintiff are not sufficient to establish diversity jurisdiction.
