U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 11-3445
U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis
[PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Murphy and Bowman, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Class Action Fairness Act of 2005. Plaintiffs' stipulation
limiting damages is enforceable and binding under Missouri's well-
established judicial estoppel doctrine and it was therefore legally
impossible for the amount in controversy in this case to meet CAFA's $5
million threshold requirement; as a result, the district court did not err in
remanding the case back to the Missouri state court.
