LYNN ADELMAN, District Judge.
On December 7, 2015, the plaintiff, Chrisandra Lilly, filed a complaint in this court pro se. One of the defendants, Children's Hospital of Wisconsin, Inc. ("CHW"), filed a motion for a more definite statement under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(e). On May 16, 2016, I granted CHW's motion, saying, "[I]t is impossible to make out what claim or claims plaintiff is advancing." Decision & Order, ECF No. 26, at 1. I ordered Lilly to file an amended complaint no later than June 17, 2016, which she did. Before me now are motions filed by CHW and CryoLife, Inc., another of the original defendants, to dismiss Lilly's amended complaint for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction and failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(1), (6).
Lilly's amended complaint contains the following factual allegations: (1) various physicians at CHW performed medical procedures on her minor daughter without consent in many cases and without medical justification in others, (2) one physician denied her daughter treatment overnight resulting in a collapsed lung, (3) several physicians committed fraud by stating in a published article about her daughter's treatment that her daughter had received a procedure that was not actually performed, (4) her daughter was made a medical research subject without her knowledge, and (5) CryoLife, Inc. used a product on her daughter that was not FDA-approved.
First, I note that Lilly does not appear to be an attorney and cannot bring claims on her daughter's behalf (or on behalf of her daughter's estate) pro se. See 28 U.S.C. § 1654; Fed. R. Civ. P. 17(c); Civil L. R. 83(b) (E.D. Wis.); Elustra v. Mineo, 595 F.3d 699, 705-06 (7th Cir. 2010); Navin v. Park Ridge Sch. Dist. 64, 270 F.3d 1147, 1149 (7th Cir. 2001); Lewis v. Lenc-Smith Mfg. Co., 784 F.2d 829, 830-31 (7th Cir. 1986)). Any claims that Lilly raises on behalf of her daughter (or her daughter's estate) must be dismissed unless an attorney admitted to practice in this court appears on Lilly's behalf.
Next, CHW argues that Lilly has not sufficiently alleged a basis for subject-matter jurisdiction in this case. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(1). This is a "facial challenge" to subject-matter jurisdiction. See Silha v. ACT, Inc., 807 F.3d 169, 173 (7th Cir. 2015). "In reviewing a facial challenge, the court must accept all well-pleaded factual allegations as true and draw all reasonable inferences in favor of the plaintiff." Id. (citing Apex Digital, Inc. v. Sears, Roebuck & Co., 572 F.3d 440, 443-44 (7th Cir. 2009)). "[T]o survive a challenge . . . under Rule 12(b)(1), a plaintiff must plead sufficient factual allegations, taken as true, that `plausibly suggest'" that subject-matter jurisdiction exists. Berger v. NCAA, No. 16-1558, 2016 WL 7051905, at *1 (7th Cir. Dec. 5, 2016) (citing Silha, 807 F.3d at 174).
In general, federal subject-matter jurisdiction can be premised on a federal question or on diversity of citizenship. See 28 U.S.C. §§ 1331, 1332. Federal question jurisdiction exists over cases "arising under the Constitution, laws, or treaties of the United States." § 1331. Diversity jurisdiction exists where the parties are citizens of different states and the amount in controversy exceeds $75,000. § 1332. Diversity jurisdiction requires "complete diversity," that is, no plaintiff can be a citizen of the same state as any defendant. Matchett v. Wold, 818 F.2d 574, 575 (7th Cir. 1987).
I cannot discern a basis for federal question jurisdiction from Lilly's amended complaint. At best, she raises state law tort claims—for medical malpractice, wrongful death, fraud, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, etc.—not federal claims. Also, Lilly's amended complaint does not plausibly suggest that diversity jurisdiction exists. Lilly alleges that she is a citizen of Wisconsin. She repeatedly notes CHW's Wisconsin address (9000 West Wisconsin Avenue, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53226) but does not otherwise allege CHW's citizenship. CHW is the only defendant included in the caption of Lilly's amended complaint. She mentions several other individuals and entities that are not included in the caption but does not allege their citizenship either, and it is not clear whether she is bringing this suit against CHW alone or against these other individuals and entities, as well.
One of these entities is CryoLife, Inc., which Lilly named as a defendant in her original complaint but does not include in the caption of her amended complaint. CryoLife, Inc. filed a motion to dismiss for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction and failure to state a claim, but I cannot discern whether CryoLife, Inc. is still a party to this action and need not consider its motion given that Lilly's amended complaint otherwise fails to survive CHW's facial challenge to federal subject-matter jurisdiction.
Lilly's amended complaint fails to plausibly suggest that federal subject-matter jurisdiction exists in this case. Lilly has already had an opportunity to amend her pleading to raise cognizable claims over which this court can exercise jurisdiction. She has failed to do so, but I will give her another opportunity. Lilly may file a second amended complaint curing the defects described above by
