ORDER

“Inquiring whether the court has jurisdiction is a federal judge’s first duty in every

case.” Belleville Catering Co. v. Champaign Market Place, L.L.C., 350 F.3d 691, 693 (7th

Cir. 2003). In this case, the notice of removal fails to sufficiently plead jurisdiction. See 28

U.S.C. § 1332; Hertz Corp. v. Friend, 559 U.S. 77, 80, 92-93 (2010) (discussing the

citizenship of a corporation).

Accordingly,

IT IS ORDERED that in responding to the motion to remand, the removing

Defendant shall also allege the citizenship of each of the corporations or this case will be

remanded for that reason alone.

DATED this 6th day of March, 2014.
