Intervention by nondiverse plaintiffs

Section 1367(b) prevents nondiverse plaintiffs from using intervention to evade complete diversity in an action based solely on diversity jurisdiction.

Ruiz-Hance v. Puerto Rico Aqueduct & Sewer Authority · filed 2009-01-27(b)

For example, the supplemental jurisdiction statute, 28 U.S.C. § 1367, identifies situations in which supplemental jurisdiction shall not be exercised, in particular where the joinder of persons seeking to be made parties under Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 14, 19, 20 or 24 would erode the complete diversity rule. ... Accordingly we hereby hold that a plaintiff cannot leave nondiverse potential co-plaintiffs out of the original lawsuit and then wait for them to intervene or be joined otherwise.

Section 1367(b) permits supplemental jurisdiction over a nondiverse defendant intervener when the plaintiffs assert no claims against it and its interests are substantially adverse to theirs.

Price v. Wolford · filed 2010-06-17(b)

Although § 1367(b) sets forth exceptions to supplemental jurisdiction, they are not applicable here. ... Neither exception applies here because OHCA intervened as a defendant, not a plaintiff, and Plaintiffs assert no claims against it. ... In this case there is a substantial conflict between OHCA and Plaintiffs. Any sum going to OHCA is taken from Plaintiffs’ recovery. Therefore, we cannot realign OHCA as a plaintiff, and the district court had jurisdiction over the entire suit after OHCA’s intervention.

Section 1367(b) bars a nondiverse class member from intervening as a named plaintiff in a diversity class action.

Klein v. O'Neal, Inc. · filed 2010-06-18(b)

He admits that the supplemental jurisdiction statute, 28 U.S.C. § 1367(b), facially prohibits intervention because he and Retrae are both citizens of Ohio and therefore complete diversity does not exist. ... But assuming that he has standing and considering the merits of the motion, the court holds that Long has pointed to no legal grounds that would allow him to intervene in the case, and his brief offers no compelling reason to find constitutional error.

Section 1367(b) bars supplemental jurisdiction over a nondiverse plaintiff who intervenes under Rule 24 in an action founded solely on diversity jurisdiction.

Johnson v. Qualawash Holdings, L.L.C. · filed 2014-01-06(b)

As noted in the court’s prior ruling in this matter, 28 U.S.C. § 1367(b) prohibits the court from exercising jurisdiction over a matter where a non-diverse plaintiff is made a party under Rule 24.

Section 1367(b) prevents a court hearing a diversity case from exercising supplemental jurisdiction over a nondiverse plaintiff who intervenes under Rule 24 when doing so would violate the requirements of § 1332.

Zenith Insurance Company v. Distinctive Surfaces LLC · filed 2020-07-31(b)

In the case at hand, common sense and the law indicate Mays, as a nondiverse intervenor as of right under Rule 24(a), is a necessary and indispensable party to the adjudication of this suit. Because Mays’ intervention has destroyed diversity, this court no longer has subject matter jurisdiction and the case must be dismissed.

Intervenor claims

Section 1367(a) permits supplemental jurisdiction over an intervenor as of right’s counterclaims that form part of the same case or controversy as claims within the court’s original jurisdiction.

Telligent Masonry, LLC v. Continental Casualty Company · filed 2019-10-29(a)

With intervention as of right, Grunley’s counterclaims may be considered by the Court via its supplemental jurisdiction to hear “claims that are so related to claims in the action within such original jurisdiction that they form part of the same case or controversy.” 28 U.S.C. § 1367(a).

Section 1367(b) bars supplemental jurisdiction over Rule 24 intervenors’ claims when the court has jurisdiction solely through diversity and the intervenor claims would conflict with § 1332; the bar does not apply when federal-question jurisdiction exists.

White v. New Orleans & Gulf Coast Railway Company · filed 2021-11-18(b)

Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1367, if a district court solely has diversity jurisdiction over the plaintiff’s claims, the court will not have supplemental jurisdiction over claims by Rule 24 intervenors, when jurisdiction would be inconsistent with § 1332 requirements. 28 U.S.C. § 1367(b). However, this Court has federal question jurisdiction over the present matter, not diversity, by virtue of Plaintiff’s claim under Federal Employers’ Liability Act (FELA). Thus, Plaintiff’s motion to dismiss intervention is without merit.

Section 1367(b) does not exclude counterclaims by a party properly aligned as an intervenor defendant from supplemental jurisdiction in a diversity case.

Frankenmuth Mutual Insurance Company v. Ivan's Painting LLC · filed 2022-03-03(b)

That distinction is dispositive here because § 1367(b) only excludes claims brought by persons seeking to intervene as a plaintiff. Owners is an intervenor-defendant, and, thus, its counterclaims are not excluded by § 1367(b).

Section 1367(a) requires an intervenor’s claims to share a common nucleus of operative fact with claims within the court’s original jurisdiction; meeting Rule 24(a)(2) alone does not establish supplemental jurisdiction.

Hamilton Reserve Bank v. Lanka · filed 2025-04-10(a)

But even acknowledging that likelihood, the standard for supplemental jurisdiction under Section 1367 is still the “common nucleus” standard – not Rule 24(a)(2)’s interest test.

Intervention in federal-question actions

Section 1367(a) permits supplemental jurisdiction over an intervention claim sufficiently related to a federal question claim, without an independent jurisdictional basis for the intervenor’s claim.

Grace United Methodist Church v. City of Cheyenne · filed 2005-10-25(a)

First, since M artin and Bantel were decided, statutory jurisdictional rules were enacted expressly providing a court may exercise supplemental jurisdiction over intervention claims that are sufficiently related to the main claim over which the court has federal question jurisdiction. 28 U.S.C. § 1367(a).

Rule 14 third-party defendant claims in diversity cases

Section 1367(b) does not bar supplemental jurisdiction over claims brought by a Rule 14 third-party defendant against the original plaintiff in a diversity case.

Metro Foundation Contractors, Inc. v. Arch Insurance · filed 2012-09-28(b)

Rather, MMA was served with a third-party complaint as a third-party defendant under Rule 14. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 14. Thus, the portion of the statute Metro relies upon is inapplicable on its face.

Claims against third-party defendants in diversity cases

When jurisdiction rests on diversity, § 1367(b) bars supplemental jurisdiction over a plaintiff’s claim against an impleaded party.

Da Cruz v. Towmasters of New Jersey, Inc. · filed 2003-06-17(b)

Section 1367(b) bars supplemental jurisdiction over a plaintiff’s direct claim against a third-party defendant when the original jurisdiction rests on diversity of citizenship.

Lee v. Regal Cruises, Ltd. · filed 1996-02-22(b)

Given that the basis of federal jurisdiction with respect to plaintiffs’ claims against the defendants is diversity of citizenship, 28 U.S.C. § 1367(b) prohibits the exercise of supplemental jurisdiction over plaintiffs’ direct claim against the third party defendant.

Section 1367(b) does not bar supplemental jurisdiction over a defendant’s third-party claim merely because the defendant and third-party defendant lack diversity.

Section 1367(b) bars supplemental jurisdiction over a plaintiff’s claims against a third-party defendant joined under Rule 14 when original jurisdiction rests solely on diversity, even if the case was removed from state court.

ARE Sikeston Limited Partnership v. Weslock National · filed 1997-07-22(b)

In the instant action, although the district court's removal jurisdiction was based on 28 U.S.C. § 1441, its original jurisdiction was founded solely on § 1332, and Westinghouse, as a third-party defendant, was made a party pursuant to Rule 14. See Fed.R.Civ.P. 14(a) (governing when a defendant, as a third-party plaintiff, can bring an additional party into an action as a third-party defendant). Thus, § 1367(b) bars the district court from exercising supplemental jurisdiction over ARE Sikeston's claims against Westinghouse.

Garfield Slope Housing Corp. v. Public Service Mutual Insurance · filed 1997-08-05(b)

Contrary to Public Service’s contentions, however, the absence of diversity jurisdiction does not compel dismissal of Garfield’s action, for ancillary jurisdiction over this third-party complaint has been established pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1367(b) (1996). A third-party complainant, such as Garfield, is not required to establish an independent jurisdictional basis for its action in order to implead a third-party defendant, such as Public Service, into another action for which jurisdiction has already been established.

Section 1367(b) bars supplemental jurisdiction over a plaintiff’s claim against a defendant joined under Rule 20 in a diversity-only action unless the claim independently meets § 1332’s jurisdictional requirements.

American Building Maintenance Co. v. 1000 Water Street Condominium Ass'n · filed 1998-06-30(b)

The supplemental jurisdiction statute, 28 U.S.C. § 1367, does not allow a court, when original jurisdiction is based only' on diversity, to exercise jurisdiction over a defendant that was made a party under Rule 20 unless that claim also meets the jurisdictional requirement of the diversity statute, 28 U.S.C. § 1332.

In a diversity case, § 1367(b) permits supplemental jurisdiction over a nondiverse fourth-party defendant’s claims against the original plaintiff, but bars the original plaintiff’s claims or counterclaims against that defendant.

Viacom International, Inc. v. Kearney · filed 2000-05-19(b)

Viacom International, Inc. v. Kearney · filed 2000-05-19(b)

Accordingly, we find that § 1367(b) poses no bar to the exercise of supplemental jurisdiction over Taylor Forge's downsloping Rule 14(a) claims against Viacom, and the only issues for adjudication are (1) whether such claims are "part of the same case or controversy" under §1367(a), and (2) whether § 1367(c) counsels against the exercise of such jurisdiction.

Carolina Asphalt Paving, Inc. v. Balfour Beatty Construction, Inc. · filed 2004-11-19(b)

Thus, by its plain language, Section 1367(b) provides that, in a diversity action, district courts will not have supplemental jurisdiction over any non-diverse persons made parties under Rules 14, 19, 20 or 24 of the federal rules. Because Carolina Asphalt impleads Cleland pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 14, the court may not exercise supplemental jurisdiction over this claim.

United States Fidelity & Guaranty Co. v. E.L. Habetz Builders, Inc. · filed 2007-07-11(b)

Additionally, USFG relies on jurisprudence from the Fifth Circuit and other Circuits indicating the term “plaintiff as found in 28 U.S.C. § 1367(b) refers only to the original plaintiff in the action, not to a defendant who happens to be a counter-plaintiff, cross-plaintiff, or third-party plaintiff.” ...

Continental Casualty Co. v. Auto Plus Insurance Agency, LLC · filed 2009-12-11(b)

Moreover, Billings’ and Auto Plus’ third-party claim does not fall within the exceptions to supplemental jurisdiction set forth in Section 1367(b). That subsection provides in relevant part that in a case originally founded on diversity jurisdiction, a federal district court may not exercise supplemental jurisdiction over a plaintiffs claims against a third-party defendant unless those claims independently meet the requirements for diversity jurisdiction.

It is worth pointing out that Section 1367(b) prohibits a court from exercising supplemental jurisdiction over defendants permissively joined under Rule 20, but does have any such prohibition over plaintiffs permissively joined—that is, it only bars a court from exercising supplemental jurisdiction over plaintiffs who are required to be joined under Rule 19.

Doe presented several claims under state law; the district court relinquished supplemental jurisdiction without deciding whether any of these theories is tenable. See 28 U.S.C. § 1367(c)(3). Success on one of the state-law theories would prevent Smith from using the defense under § 2511(2)(d). Because the state and federal issues are intertwined, both should be resolved in federal court.

James Reed, Jr. v. Teledyne Systems Company, Inc. · filed 1996-08-14(c)(2)

A recent Ninth Circuit decision outlining the reasons for which a district court may properly decline to exercise supplemental jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1367(c), also lists the predominance of the state claims as an appropriate reason. ... First, proving the state claims would require not only the evidence for the Title VII claim, but also substantial additional evidence regarding the nature of Reed's employment contract and the personnel policies and practices of Teledyne. As a result, the state claims would predominate. Therefore, the district court was correct in refusing to permit an amendment.

Further, under its pendent jurisdiction, the federal court could have addressed a violation of due process claim under Ga. Const, of 1983, Art. I, Sec. I, Par. I, the Georgia Tort Claims Act, OCGA § 50-21-20 et seq., or state contract law. ... In this case, the due process issue arose from the same circumstances and involved the same subject matter as that presented in Bradley’s federal case, i.e., her dismissal and the question of whether it was based on race or the negative citations in her employment records.

Section 1367(a) allows a district court to hear nonfederal claims that are intertwined with claims within its original jurisdiction.

Popular Democratic Party v. Com. of Puerto Rico · filed 1998-10-13(a)

The second, third, fourth, and sixth causes of action of the complaint do not raise any federal questions. However, because of their very nature, these causes of action are inextricably intertwined with the first and fifth causes of action. ... Having taken all those factors into account, this Court finds that it is fair and efficient to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over the second, third, fourth, and sixth causes of action.

Section 1367 allows a court to dismiss unspecified supplemental state law claims with leave to replead when many federal claims have been dismissed.

Sims v. Kernan · filed 1998-12-04

The doctrine of pendent jurisdiction, which has been codified in 28 U.S.C. § 1367, provides that, unless otherwise provided by statute, federal courts “have supplemental jurisdiction over all other claims that are so related to claims in the action ... that they form part of the same case or controversy.” Mr. Sims does not assert what state law claims he wishes to proceed on and because so many of Mr. Sims’s federal claims have been dismissed, the court will dismiss his pendent jurisdiction claims, with leave to Mr. Sims to replead them with more specificity.

As to Count Three of the complaint, the judgment against the City under state law for conversion, the district court, while it may have had at the beginning of the case the right to assert its supplemental jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1367(a) if properly developed, even though not initially claimed in the complaint, in view of the agreed- upon pre-trial order which removed that issue from the case, even if present; the post-trial memorandum of the plaintiff; the positions the parties took during this proceeding in the district court; and the preju- dice to the defendant which is apparent from the record; we are of opinion the district court abused its discretion in considering the mer- its of this supplemental or pendent claim under state law.

Section 1367 permits a district court to retain supplemental jurisdiction over state law claims in its discretion, considering convenience, fairness, federal policy, comity, and judicial economy.

Charles Lee Semple, Jr. v. The City Of Moundsville · filed 1999-10-05

A district court may exercise its discretion in retaining jurisdiction over state law claims made in the case through supplemental jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1367 when there is a federal basis for jurisdiction. See Shanaghan v. Cahill, 58 F.3d 106, 109 (4th Cir. 1995). The district court exercises its discretion by considering factors that include: "convenience and fairness to the parties, the existence of any underlying issues of federal policy, comity, and considerations of judicial economy." See Shanaghan, 58 F.3d at 110. In light of these factors, we are of opinion that the district court did not abuse its discretion by retaining jurisdiction over the pendent state law claims.

Euromarket Designs, Inc. v. Crate & Barrel Ltd. · filed 2000-05-16(a), (c)

In this case, supplemental jurisdiction over the Illinois claim is appropriate. Both the federal claim, a violation of the Lanham Act, and the state claim, a violation of the Illinois Uniform Deceptive Trade Practices Act, arise from the same nucleus of operative facts, specifically, Defendant’s alleged use of Plaintiffs trademark on Defendant’s Internet website, as Defendant’s domain name, and on Defendant’s labels of goods. Furthermore, there are no factors under 28 U.S.C. § 1367(c) that would warrant this Court to decline jurisdiction over the state claim.

Section 1367 gives a federal court supplemental jurisdiction over a state discrimination claim arising from the same facts as a federal discrimination claim.

Moreover, McCall could certainly have brought his state discrimination as part of his federal action, and it is likely the federal court would have entertained it since the same facts were involved and the theory of liability is substantially, if not entirely, identical. Under the principles of United Mine Workers of America v.

Section 1367(a) permits supplemental jurisdiction over a state law claim arising from the same facts and circumstances as claims within the court’s original federal jurisdiction, when sovereign immunity does not bar the claim.

Savage v. Glendale Union High School, District No. 205, Maricopa County · filed 2003-09-10(a)

Because the School District does not benefit from sovereign immunity, the district court properly exercised supplemental jurisdiction.
