On October 7, 2024, the Supreme Court heard arguments to answer two longstanding questions on removal jurisdiction: (1) Whether amending a complaint to eliminate the only federal questions destroys federal subject-matter jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1331; and (2) whether a post-removal amended complaint precludes a district court from exercising supplemental jurisdiction over state law claims under 28 U.S.C. § 1367.

I had the pleasure of attending the amazing Art for Autism event with my wonderful McGlinchey Stafford colleagues Melissa Losch, Susanne Cooper, Andrew Albritton, Magdalen "Mag" Bickford, and Madeline Earles. The event, hosted by Easterseals Louisiana, was a wonderful opportunity to support a great cause and appreciate the incredible talent on display. Seeing the creativity and passion behind each piece of art reminded us of the importance of inclusion and advocacy for individuals with autism. I’m grateful to be part of a law firm and a community committed to making a difference. #ArtForAutism #EastersealsLouisiana #Advocacy #CommunitySupport

The Eighth Circuit recently reversed a District Court’s decision granting summary judgment and remanded with instructions to dismiss the case due to lack of standing to assert a claim under the FDCPA. This case highlights the importance of standing as a defense to statutory violations. A plaintiff’s inability to demonstrate any concrete injury is crucial, as it justifies the dismissal of the case.
