          MEMORANDUM

          DALE S. FISCHER, District Judge.

         Proceedings: (In Chambers) Order DISMISSING Case for Lack of Subject Matter Jurisdiction

         This case was filed in this Court on July 29, 2015 based on diversity jurisdiction. However, the face of the complaint shows that both Plaintiff Starr Indemnity & Liability Company and Defendant National Union Fire Insurance Company of Pittsburgh, PA are citizens of New York. (Compl. ¶¶ 5, 8.) Therefore, complete diversity does not exist. The case is DISMISSED for lack of subject matter jurisdiction.

         IT IS SO ORDERED.
