MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Dukes v., No. 14-750 (2nd Cir. 2014):
Further, the court was not required to grant leave to amend because, in light of the evidence presented at the hearing, Dukes could not establish diversity jurisdiction by amending her complaint. See Cuoco v. Moritsugu, 222 F.3d 99, 112 (2d Cir. 2000).1
