Docket(#5) ORDER: In the present case, plaintiffs rely, in part, on diversity of citizenship for federal jurisdiction. However, appellants Circuit Rule 3(c) docketing statement fails to provide sufficient information as to the business structure of plaintiffs Motorola Solutions Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. and Hytera Communications Corporation Ltd. as business entities created under the laws of Malaysia and the Republic of China, respectively. Particular attention is given to foreign corporations in diversity cases. We have said that parties cannot assume that foreign business entities enjoy the same corporate status as the United States understands it. See White Pearl Inversiones S.A. (Uruguay) v. Cemusa, Inc., 647 F3d 684, 686 (7th Cir. 2011). Therefore, appellants must provide more detail in their Jurisdictional Statement as to the business structure of plaintiffs Motorola Solutions Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. and Hytera Communications Corporation Ltd. under the laws of the nation of their creation. Accordingly, appellants shall file a complete statement of jurisdiction that includes the omitted information. The statement is due on or before August 23, 2022.
