- ilnd;;1:19-cv-02523_de11 RegisterActionDescriptionText "MINUTE entry before the Honorable Sara L. Ellis: Status hearing held on 6/13/2019. Plaintiff filed this case invoking the Court's diversity jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. 1332(a). But the Court does not have jurisdiction over this case because the parties are not diverse. Plaintiff is a Chinese corporation, a foreign citizen. Although Plaintiff names several Defendants who appear to be U.S. citizens, it also names Agroindustrial Arica S.A., a Chilean corporation and thus a foreign citizen. Because foreign parties are on both sides of the suit, with only U.S. citizens named as Defendants, diversity of citizenship does not exist. See Extra Equipamentos E Exportacao Ltda. v. Case Corp., 361 F.3d 359, 361 (7th Cir. 2004) ("The diversity jurisdiction does not extend to a suit in which there is a U.S. citizen on only one side of the suit and foreign parties on both sides[.]"). Therefore, the Court dismisses this case without prejudice for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. Civil case terminated. Mailed notice (rj, ) (Entered: 06/14/2019)" @default.
