(7th Cir. 2003). 

 In this case, the complaint fails to sufficiently plead jurisdiction. See 28 U.S.C. §

companies and identifying the entity type and citizenship for the “Enchantment Group” 

or this case will be dismissed, without prejudice, for lack of federal subject matter 

jurisdiction. 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that on November 7, 2018 at 3:00 p.m. counsel for 

Plaintiff shall appear and show cause why he should not be sanctioned for failing to plead
