What is the legal test for a facial attack to challenge a plaintiff's claim in a motion for damages under Rule 12(b)(1)?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Razi v. Pompeo, Case No.: 20-CV-0982-W-MSB (S.D. Cal. 2020):

a complaint unless controverted by undisputed facts in the record." Warren v. Fox Family Worldwide, Inc., 328 F.3d 1136, 1139 (9th Cir. 2003) (internal quotation marks, brackets, ellipsis and citations omitted).

A facial attack challenges the complaint on its face. Safe Air for Everyone v. Meyer, 373 F.3d 1035, 1039 (9th Cir. 2004). But when the moving party raises a factual challenge to jurisdiction, the court may look beyond the complaint and consider extrinsic evidence, and "need not presume the truthfulness of the plaintiff's allegations." See id. Once the defendant has presented a factual challenge under Rule 12(b)(1), the burden of proof shifts to the plaintiff to "furnish affidavits or other evidence necessary to satisfy its burden of establishing subject matter jurisdiction." Id.
