In this hypothetical diversity of citizenship case, federal law requires complete diversity of citizenship between plaintiffs and defendants and an amount in controversy greater than $75,000 in order for federal courts to entertain jurisdiction of an action. Tom Jones and Leonard Woodrock were deep-shaft coal miners in West Virginia, although Leonard lived across the border in Kentucky. Tom purchased a new Eureka, a National Motors car, from Pappy’s Auto Sales, a local firm. National Motors Corporation is a large auto manufacturer with its main factory in Indiana, and is incorporated in Kentucky. When Tom was driving Leonard home from the mine, the Eureka’s steering wheel inexplicably locked. The car hurtled down a 100-foot embankment and came to rest against a tree. The Eureka, which cost$17,100, was a total loss. Tom and Leonard suffered damages of $58,000 apiece for personal injuries. Can Tom sue National Motors for damages in a federal court? Why? Can Leonard? Can Leonard and Tom join their claims and sue National Motors in federal court?
