113445P.pdf   02/02/2012  John Rolwing  v.  Nestle Holdings, Inc.
   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.
