1Opinion of the Court
Opinion for the Court filed by Circuit Judge WALD.
WALD, Circuit Judge:
Dorothy and Willard Rosenboro appeal the district court’s dismissal of their diversity action against Andrew Kim and Melvin Estrin. The district court dismissed the Rosenboros’ suit before trial because it found to a legal certainty that their claims were worth less than $50,000 — the statutory threshold for federal diversity jurisdiction. We affirm the district court’s ruling as to Dorothy Rosenboro, but reverse as to Willard Rosenboro.
