Question:

3. Is diversity jurisdiction lost if plaintiff’s recovery turns out to be less than the amountin-

controversy requirement? See 28 U.S.C. § 1332(b). Should events that take place after the filing of the complaint ever be relevant to the jurisdictional inquiry? Might some post-filing events suggest that an allegation was made in bad faith? See Hall v. Earthlink Network, Inc., 396 F.3d 500 (2d Cir. 2005).
