State National Insurance v. Yates
Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit
Decided November 12, 2004No. 04-60157PublishedCited by 51 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
PATRICK E. HIGGINBOTHAM, Circuit Judge:
The district court dismissed this suit for want of jurisdiction pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 19. Plaintiff State National Insurance Company appeals. The district court concluded that it could not proceed without a third party, Bruce Insurance Agency, the joinder of which would defeat subject matter jurisdiction. Persuaded that supplemental jurisdiction supported the additional party to the counterclaim, we vacate the district court’s dismissal and remand for further proceedings.
