SABRINA JOHNS-TRAYLOR, Plaintiff, v. WAL-MART INC., Defendant.
ORDER
NANCY J. KOPPE, UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
This case has been removed on diversity grounds. See Docket No. 1.
To assist federal courts in ensuring that diversity jurisdiction exists, the disclosure statement filed by each party “must name-and identify the citizenship of-every individual or entity whose citizenship is attributed to that party.” Fed.R.Civ.P. 7.1(a)(2). Neither party identifies then- citizenship in their certificate of interested parties. See Docket Nos. 2 (Defendant's certificate of interested parties); 7 (Plaintiffs certificate of interested parties).
This federal rule became effective on December 1, 2022.
Accordingly, Plaintiff and Defendant must file amended certificates of interested parties by April 11, 2023, fully identifying their citizenship.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
