ORDER

LEwis A. KAPLAN, District Judge. Jurisdiction is invoked pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1332. The COMPLAINT fails adequately to allege the existence of subject matter jurisdiction because, perhaps among other things, it fails adequately to allege: □ The citizenship of one or more natural oe See, eB Sun Printing & Publishing Ass’n v. Edwards, 194 U.S. 377 (1904); Leveraged Leasing Administration Corp.v. PacifiCorp Capital, Inc., 87 F.3d 44 (2d Cir. 1996). Oo The citizenship of one or more corporations. See 28 U.S.C. § 1332(c)(1). Oo The citizenship of one or more partnerships. See Carden y. Arkoma Assoes., 494 U.S. 195 (1990). Oo The citizenship of one or more limited liability companies, See Handlesman v. Bedford Village Green Assocs. L.P., 213 F.3d 48, 52 (2d Cir. 2000). Oo The nature and citizenship of one or more business entities. Oo The timely removal of the action from state court. Absent the filing, on or before July 14 2022, of an amended complaint adequately alleging the existence of subject matter jurisdiction and either deleting the Does defendants (whose citizenship is not alleged) or the filing of a memorandum demonstrating that their citizenship does not affect the existence ofdiversity jurisdiction at this stage of the action , this case will be dismissed for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. SO ORDERED. Dated: July 6, 2022 /S/ Lewis A. Kaplan Lewis A. Kaplan United States District Judge
