How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding that plaintiff’s allegation of residency, as opposed to citizenship, is insufficient to establish diversity jurisdiction
• ruling the plaintiff’s state law claims were barred by res judicata because the plaintiff could have raised them in his original suit claiming an ERISA violation but failed to do so
• the doctrine of res judicata precludes the same parties from re-litigating claims already decided on the merits in a prior action
