IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ROWMEEKA COLLIER,

Plaintiff,

 v.

NATIONWIDE INSURANCE COMPANY

OF AMERICA, et al.,

Defendants. /

No. C 15-00822 WHA

NOTICE REGARDING

SUPPLEMENTAL BRIEFING

In this breach of contract action, plaintiff filed a motion to dismiss without prejudice

pursuant to Rule 41(a)(2). Defendants filed their opposition, and plaintiff responded (Dkt.

Nos. 15, 24). The parties seem to assume that adding in Golden Gate Tow, Inc., a California

company, at this stage would destroy diversity and the Court’s jurisdiction. While it would

destroy diversity, the Court questions whether it would destroy jurisdiction, given that

jurisdiction is currently proper. 

By FRIDAY, JUNE 12, 2015, AT NOON, the parties shall please respond with on-point

authority as to whether a case properly removed on the basis of diversity must be dismissed upon

subsequent lack of diversity. Responses shall not exceed TWO PAGES. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: June 8, 2015.
