7th Circuit Court of Appeals
Case Name: Sabrina Roppo v. Travelers Commercial Insurance Co, et al.
Case No.: 15-3171
Officials: WOOD, Chief Judge, and RIPPLE and WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges.
Focus: Amended Complaint – Lack of Jurisdiction
Ms. Roppo now renews her argument that federal jurisdiction is lacking and therefore asks us to vacate the district court’s judgment. She also contends that, even if the district court had jurisdiction, we should reverse its judgment because the third amended complaint sufficiently states claims of fraudulent misrepresentation, negligent misrepresentation, and negligence under Illinois law, as well as violations of the Illinois Insurance Code and the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act. We cannot agree with her submission and, for the reasons set forth in this opinion, we affirm the district court’s dismissal of Ms. Roppo’s third amended complaint.
