Authority For Civil Cover Sheet
The JS 44 civil cover sheet and the information contained herein neither replaces nor supplements the filings and service of pleading or other papers as required
by law, except as provided by local rules of court. This form, approved by the Judicial Conference ofthe United States in September 1974, is required for the use

filed. The attomey filing a case should complete the form as follows:

the full name or standard abbreviations. lf the plaintiff or defendant is an official within a government agency, identify first the agency and then the official, giving
both name and title.
(b) County of Residence. For each civil case filed, except U.S. plaintiffcases, enter the name ofthe county where the first listed plaintiff resides at the time
of filing. In U.S. plaintiff cases, enter the name ofthe county in which the first listed defendant resides at the time of filing. (NOTE: Inland condemnation cases,
the county of residence of the "defendant" is the location of the tract of land involved.)
(c) Attorneys. Enter the firm name, address, telephone number, and attorney of record. lf there are several attorneys, list them on an attachment, noting
in this section °°(see attachment)".
II. Jurisdiction. The basis of jurisdiction is set forth under Rule 8(a), F.R.C.P., which requires that jurisdictions be shown in pleadings. Place an “X" in one .
of the boxes. lf there is more than one basis of jurisdiction, precedence is given in the order shown below.

different patties must be checked. (See Section III below; federal question actions take precedence over diversity cases.)

the most definitive.
