Case No.: 2:23-cv-01763-APG-EJY
Order (1) Striking Plaintiff’s Certificate of
Interested Parties, and (2) Directing
Plaintiff to Show Cause Why Sanctions
Should Not Be Entered Against Plaintiff
and Its Counsel

I have entered three orders striking plaintiff Stability Technology Partners, LLC’s

10 certificate of interested parties. Its most recent response (ECF No. 10) repeats the same problem
11 identified in my prior orders. It is apparent that Stability’s counsel is not reading my orders. I
12 will repeat it, this time in bold so counsel does not miss it again: As I have explained
13 multiple times now, a limited liability company “is a citizen of every state of which its
14 owners/members are citizens.” Johnson v. Columbia Properties Anchorage, LP, 437 F.3d
15 894, 899 (9th Cir. 2006). Thus, Stability must identify the citizenship of each of its
16 owners/members. I (again) strike Stability’s most recent certificate. I also order Stability to
17 show cause why I should not enter sanctions against Stability and its counsel for repeatedly
18 ignoring my orders.

I THEREFORE ORDER that plaintiff Stability Technology Partners, LLC’s certificate of

20 interested parties (ECF No. 10) is stricken.
