Valencia v. Allstate Texas Lloyd’s

Court: 5th Cir  10/02/2020  Fifth Circuit Remands Homeowner's Dispute to State Court After Non-Party Injected Itself into Lawsuit and Removed to Federal Court

The court found that the insured homeowner was clear that it intended to sue and pursue recovery from a non-diverse Texas insurer entity and not a similarly named Illinois entity, so the district court did not have subject matter jurisdiction and remand to state court was appropriate.
