United States Supreme Court

In a wage and hour action, the court of appeals' affirmance of the district court's order remanding the case to state court is vacated and remanded where the Court returned to the "nerve center" approach in determining a corporation's citizenship for diversity jurisdiction purposes, under which "principal place of business" is best read as referring to the place where a corporation's officers direct, control, and coordinate the corporation's activities.
