IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEBRASKA
CHEEMA INVESTMENTS, LLC,
Plaintiff,

4:14CV3067

vs.
MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
TAMKO BUILDING PRODUCTS, INC., a
Missouri corporation;
Defendant.
On May 9, 2014, the court ordered the plaintiff to complete and file this court’s
Corporate Disclosure Statement form.1 As explained in that order, to determine subject matter
jurisdiction, the court must have information identifying the members of the plaintiff LLC, and
the citizenship of those members. The form to be completed by Cheema Investments, LLC was
attached to the order. See Filing No. 10.

The plaintiff now moves to file a corporate disclosure statement out of time. (Filing No.
15). The proposed corporate disclosure statement does not include the information required
under the May 9, 2014 order, the Nebraska Civil Rules, and GMAC Commercial Credit LLC v.
Dillard Dept. Stores, Inc., 357 F.3d 827 (8th Cir. 2004). Specifically, the plaintiff’s proposed
corporate disclosure statement is incomplete because it fails to “identify each member of the
[LLC] and the member’s state of citizenship.” Corporate Disclosure Statement, p. 2.
Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED:
1)
