ORDER

This is a residential foreclosure avoidance case. Plaintiff Anthony Coleman has sued

15

Defendants Cooper Castle Law Firm (“Cooper Castle”) and an attorney in its Las Vegas, Nevada

16

office, Matthew Dayton, in this Court on two state law claims: (1) fraud; and (2) violations of

17

Nevada Revised Statutes section 107.080. Defendants have moved to dismiss for several

18

reasons. The Court grants the motion for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. Because Dayton is a

19

Nevada resident, he is not diverse with Plaintiff. See 28 U.S.C. § 1332(a). The Court need not

20

examine the citizenship of Cooper Castle.
