Opinion
Trial Court Opinion
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA San Francisco Division FATIMA DIALLO, Case No. 24-cv-02928-LB
Plaintiff, ORDER GRANTING MOTION TO
AMEND COMPLAINT AND
v. REMANDING CASE
WELLS FARGO BANK, N.A., Re: ECF No. 11 Defendant. 16 17 Plaintiff Fatima Diallo sued her former employer, defendant Wells Fargo Bank, for workplace discrimination, wrongful termination, and related violations of state law.1 Wells Fargo removed the case to federal court based on diversity jurisdiction.2 The plaintiff then moved to amend her complaint to add her former manager, Sergiy Vladychkin, as a defendant. This would destroy diversity jurisdiction and require remand to state court.3 The court exercises its discretion, grants leave to amend, and remands the case to San Francisco County Superior Court. 24
