                  Appeal from the United States District Court
                      for the Southern District of Florida
                     D.C. Docket No. 9:21-cv-80348-AMC
                           ____________________

       Before JILL PRYOR and GRANT, Circuit Judges.
       PER CURIAM:
               Upon review of the record and the parties’ joint response to
       the jurisdictional questions, the parties’ motion to supplement the
       record about the plaintiffs’ citizenship, incorporated in their re-
       sponse, is GRANTED. We accept the declaration submitted with
       the motion to supplement and deem the record so supplemented.
       See Cabalceta v. Standard Fruit Co., 883 F.2d 1553, 1555 (11th Cir.
       1989). The record as supplemented now establishes that there was
       complete diversity of citizenship and the district court had subject
       matter jurisdiction over this action in the first instance; specifically,
       the plaintiff limited liability companies, through their members,
       are citizens of Florida and Illinois, while the defendant corporation
       is a citizen of California. See 28 U.S.C. § 1332; Travaglio v. Am. Ex-
       press Co., 735 F.3d 1266, 1269 (11th Cir. 2013); Mallory & Evans Con-
       tractors & Eng’rs, LLC v. Tuskegee Univ., 663 F.3d 1304, 1305 (11th
       Cir. 2011); Rolling Greens MHP, L.P. v. Comcast SCH Holdings L.L.C.,

       phy, 924 F.3d 1134, 1143 (11th Cir. 2019).
              Accordingly, this appeal MAY PROCEED.
