YOU ARE 28 UNITED STATES CODE SECTION 1332!
You are not a Federal Rule of Civil Procedure at
all: you’re the statute that allows the
federal district courts to hear diversity of
citizenship actions! You were drafted with
the idea that an out-of-state party may be
unduly prejudiced by appearing in a foreign
state. Sometimes people may think that
you’re strange, and they try to minimalize
your effects by requiring an amount in
controversy and by being especially strict on
the requirements for diversity. Also,
attorneys often use you for “forum
shopping” and other undesirable
behavior. But there’s no getting around the
fact that you’re so darned loveable! Your
delightful quirkiness entertains friends and
law professors alike, and although others may
grumble about your eccentricities behind your
back, they’re always talking about you, so
you must be doing something right. Let’s
face it, the world could use a few more 28
USC 1332’s!
