Description
ARGUED JANUARY 9, 2004 Extra, a Brazilian company, sued Case, a major U.S. manufacturer of farm and construction equipment, in the federal district court in Chicago, charging fraud. (The co-plaintiff, Extra's boss, can be ignored.) Jurisdiction was based on 28 U.S.C. § 1332(a)(2), because the suit was between a citizen of a state (Case) and citizens of a foreign country (Extra and its boss). The district judge dismissed the suit under Fed. R. Civ. P. 19(b) on the ground that Case Brasil & Cia, Case's wholly owned Brazilian subsidiary, was an indispensable party to the suit. Extra appeals.
