Annotate this CaseBefore: NORRIS, BEEZER and TROTT, Circuit Judges.
ORDER**
Plaintiff Kathleen Holland appeals pro se the district court's dismissal of her claims against State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance for lack of subject matter jurisdiction pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b) (1) and Straub Clinic for lack of personal jurisdiction pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b) (2).
The district court correctly found that Holland's maximum possible recovery against State Farm would be $15,000. The district court also correctly found that State Farm and Straub Clinic could not be jointly liable for any of Holland's claims. Accordingly, the district court correctly dismissed Holland's claims against State Farm for failure to satisfy 28 U.S.C. § 1332' § $50,000 amount-in-controversy requirement.
The district court correctly found that Straub Clinic has no contacts in California. Accordingly, the district court correctly dismissed Straub Clinic for lack of personal jurisdiction.
AFFIRMED.
