MINUTE ORDER
The following Minute Order is made at the direction of the Court, the Honorable Tana Lin, United States District Judge:
(1) Local Civil Rule 7.1 requires a party that is a limited liability corporation (“LLC”) to (1) file a corporate disclosure statement identifying any member or owner in the LLC and (2) in a diversity case, list the states in which the owners or members are citizens. See also Fed.R.Civ.P. 7.1(2); Johnson v. Columbia Props. Anchorage, LP, 437 F.3d 894, 899 (9th Cir. 2006) (“[A]n LLC is a citizen of every state of which its owners/members are citizens.”).
(2) Plaintiff brings suit under diversity jurisdiction and is an LLC. Plaintiff's corporate disclosure is insufficient under the governing rules listed above.
(3) Accordingly, Plaintiff is DIRECTED to file a revised corporate disclosure statement identifying each member and owner of PHE Gaskets LLC and the state in which each member or owner is a citizen within seven (7) days of this Order.
