Herrera v. Bird

1 Citing case

  1. Reyes v. Hess Retail Stores LLC

    605 F. Supp. 3d 463 (E.D.N.Y. 2022)   Cited 5 times
    Holding that a statement that damages “‘exceed[] the monetary jurisdictional limits, including the minimum threshold for federal jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1332, '” fulfilled Moltner's requirement of an explicit damages specification, and was “no different than alleging ‘exceeds $75,000.'”

    They either involved a bad faith allegation of the amount in controversy, or they represent pre- Moltner attempts by removing defendants to cobble together allegations of injury in a complaint to reach their own conclusion that more than $75,000 was in controversy.See Herrera v. Bird, No. 07-cv-4000, 2007 WL 2816187, at *2 (E.D.N.Y. Sept. 26, 2007).
