   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  09-3800
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Wollman, Author, with Murphy and Gruender, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Arbitration. Pursuant to 18 U.S.C. Sec. 1348, a national bank is a citizen only of the state in which its main office is located; applied here, Wells Fargo is a citizen only of South Dakota, and the district court did not err in concluding that it had subject-matter jurisdiction over this action because the parties are citizens of different states; defendants waived their right to enforce a contractual proscription on injunctive relief by failing to challenge Wells Fargo's request for such relief in the arbitration proceedings and by asking for such relief themselves; arbitrators did not exceed scope of the arbitral mandate by deciding the parties' competing claims as to who developed or invented a software package as resolving the issue was necessary to deciding an issue concerning misappropriation; Rule 43(d)(ii) provided a basis for an award of attorneys' fees against e-Pin; district court did not abuse its discretion by denying a motion to terminate or amend the permanent injunction. Judge Murphy, dissenting.
