Can non-Fedex defendants argue that the District Court lacks subject matter jurisdiction?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from United States ex rel. Hayes v. Allstate Ins. Co., 853 F.3d 80 (2nd Cir. 2017):

Because "every federal appellate court has a special obligation to satisfy itself not only of its own jurisdiction, but also [of] that of the lower courts in a cause under review," we will consider the non-FedEx defendants' contention that the district court lacked subject matter jurisdiction. Arnold v. Lucks , 392 F.3d 512, 517 (2d Cir. 2004) (internal quotation marks omitted).
