The Amended Complaint joins Bramko as a party defendant by adding claims of strict products liability and negligence against it. In its Motion to Dismiss, Bramko correctly argues that the Court no longer has diversity jurisdiction since both Plaintiff and Bramko are citizens of the state of Missouri, and therefore this case must be dismissed.
