Declaratory counterclaims tied to diversity claims

Section 1367(a) provides supplemental jurisdiction over a declaratory judgment counterclaim that shares a common nucleus of operative fact with a claim within the court’s original diversity jurisdiction.

Atlantic Specialty Insurance Company v. Midwest Crane Repair, LLC · filed 2020-09-14(a)

The Court finds that ... Midwest Crane’s declaratory judgment counterclaim derives from the same common nucleus of operative facts as Crossland’s negligence claim over which this Court exercises diversity jurisdiction. It therefore has an independent basis for jurisdiction over the counterclaim under 28 U.S.C. § 1367(a).

California accessibility claim filing restrictions

Section 1367(c)(4) permits a district court to decline supplemental jurisdiction over state construction-related accessibility claims when filing them in federal court evades California’s pleading and fee restrictions and creates exceptional circumstances and compelling reasons.

Fernandez v. O Reilly Auto Enterprises, LLC · filed 2021-03-04(c)(4)

Related counterclaims despite incomplete diversity

Section 1367 permits supplemental jurisdiction over a counterclaim sharing a common nucleus of operative fact with the existing claims despite a lack of complete diversity.

Rosewood Apartments Corp. v. Perpignano · filed 2002-03-20(a)

The absence of complete diversity is not a bar to proceeding here. Having found that the accounting is essential to determination of the adequacy of the plaintiffs proposed cash distribution to the defendants, we find that there exists a common nucleus of operative fact between defendants’ counterclaim for an accounting and the resolution of the issues arising out of the December 1998 transactions'. Therefore, we will exercise our discretion to find supplemental jurisdiction over defendants’ counterclaim for an accounting, as this is the only way to accurately ascertain the damages for breach of fiduciary duty.

Causal or evidentiary links without shared facts

Section 1367(a) does not confer supplemental jurisdiction over state claims linked to federal claims only by but-for causation when the claims lack common operative facts.

Bradley v. North Carolina Department of Transportation · filed 2003-10-07(a)

While the all of these causes of action do share some common facts, since the facts relevant to the state actions are irrelevant to the federal actions, one cannot say that the actions have common “operative facts.” ... Therefore, there seems to be little reason for bringing these actions in one judicial proceeding, and the claims are not part of the same case or controversy. As such this Court does not have supplemental jurisdiction over Bradley’s claims against the Defendant Moore or the Buncombe County Defendants.

Section 1367(a) requires a state-law claim to form part of the same case or controversy as a claim within original jurisdiction; possible relevance of requested records to the federal claim does not alone establish that connection.

Although plaintiffs claims under section 1983 are clearly within this court’s original jurisdiction, his Open Records Act claim is not so related to the section 1983 claims as to form part of the same case or controversy. The documents at issue in the Open Records Act claim may be relevant to plaintiffs federal claims. Nonetheless, the determinations which must be made regarding the documents’ status and accessibility under Georgia law are not related to the issues underlying plaintiffs section 1983 claims.

Remand after post-removal disclaimer

Even if a pre-removal disclaimer intended to preclude federal officer removal is ineffective under the fine sliver of federal common law that has percolated on that topic, the propriety of a post-removal action either in the form of an express disclaimer or an amendment to a complaint removing allegations triggering federal liability is controlled by the discretionary principles of supplemental jurisdiction: judicial economy, convenience, fairness, and comity.
