Eighth Circuit: James Pudlowski v. The St. Louis Rams LLC


Class Actions, CAFA, Federal Jurisdiction



Absent claim of lack of jurisdiction, removal notice under CAFA need only make a short plain statement with a plausible claim to removal.  As there was no obligation to prove diversity at removal, affidavits establishing diversity can be considered post-removal.
