- Authors
Benton, Terri K.
- Abstract
The article discusses a case Underwriters at Lloyd's v. Osting-Schwinn of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit regarding the pure diversity requirements of plaintiff. Most of the citizenship claims were barred by the court in which involvement of unincorporated associations was present. Information on the section 1332 diversity statute is presented, and it reflects that without a refinement in its litigation, plaintiff will have marginal chance to pursue state law claims.
