ORDER1

SHERI POLSTER CHAPPELL, District Judge.

This matter comes before the Court on review of the Complaint (Doc. #1) filed on August 25, 2014. Plaintiff Mutual First, LLC asserts this Court has federal jurisdiction over this matter pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1332(a). Claims properly brought in federal court pursuant to Section 1332(a) contain matters where the parties are completely diverse with regard to citizenship and where the amount in controversy exceeds the sum or value of $75,000, exclusive of interest and costs. 28 U.S.C. § 1332(a); Morrison v. Allstate Indem. Co., 228 F.3d 1255, 1261 (11th Cir. 2000). In an action filed directly in federal court, the plaintiff bears the burden of adequately pleading, and ultimately proving, jurisdiction. King v. Cessna Aircraft Co., 505 F.3d 1160, 1171 (11th Cir. 2007).

Mutual First has failed to properly allege the citizenship of itself and Defendant Brian David Firestone. Mutual First plainly states it is a Texas limited liability corporation. (Doc. #1, at ¶1). A limited liability corporation (hereinafter "LLC") is a citizen of every state in which one of its members is a citizen. Moreno v. Breitburn Florida, LLC, No. 2:09-cv-566-FtM-29DNF, 2011 WL 2293124 at *1 (M.D. Fla. June 9, 2011) (citing Rolling Greens MHP, L.P. v. Comcast SCH Holdings, LLC, 374 F.3d 1020 (11th Cir. 2004)). Each member of the LLC must be diverse from the defendant in this case. Lincoln Prop. Co. v. Roche, 546 U.S. 81, 89 (2005) ("Since Strawbridge v. Curtiss, 3 Cranch 267, 2 L.Ed. 435, this Court has read the statutory formulation `between . . . citizens of different States,' 28 U.S.C. § 1332(a)(1), to require complete diversity between all plaintiffs and all defendants."); see also Lewis v. Seneff, No. 6:07-cv-1245-Orl-22DAB, 2008 WL 3200273, at *2 (M.D. Fla. Aug. 5, 2008) (explaining that if any of the LLC members were Florida citizens then complete diversity jurisdiction would be destroyed). Here, Mutual First fails to disclose the citizenship of its LLC members. Therefore, Mutual First has failed to properly allege its citizenship.

In addition, Mutual First asserts Firestone is an individual whose principal place of business is in Florida. (Doc. #1, at ¶2). An individual is a citizen for diversity purposes where he is domiciled and not where his principal place of business is. Domicile is the place of an individual's true, fixed, and permanent home and to which he has the intention of returning whenever he is absent therefrom. See, e.g., Arrol v. Heron, No. 2:10-cv-655-FtM-29DNF, 2011 WL 672417, at *1 (M.D. Fla. Feb. 17, 2011). Mutual First has failed to properly allege Firestone's citizenship. Therefore, Mutual First has failed to establish that the parties are completely diverse and that this Court has jurisdiction over this matter pursuant to Section 1332(a).

Accordingly, it is now

ORDERED:

DONE AND ORDERED.
