LEEDS EQUITY PARTNERS IV, L.P., Plaintiff, v. FIDEL ALONSO VALLS AND BANCO POPULAR DE PUERTO RICO, Defendants.

JOHN G. KOELTL, District Judge

MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER

:

The plaintiff alleges diversity jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1332. The complaint describes the plaintiff as a limited partnership. A limited partnership has the citizenship of each of its members for the purposes of diversity jurisdiction. See Handelsman v. Bedford Vill. Assocs. Ltd. P'ship, 213 F.3d 48, 52 (2d Cir. 2000). The plaintiff should therefore advise the Court as soon as possible as to the citizenship of each of the general and limited partners of this limited partnership.

SO ORDERED.

Dated: New York, New York
