TANZYMORE V. BETHLEHEM STEEL CORP.
457 F.2d 1320 (3rd Cir. 1972)
NATURE OF THE CASE: This was an appeal of the dismissal of a personal action against
appellee employer for want of jurisdiction.
FACTS: Appellant Tanzymore (P) filed a complaint seeking damages from Bethlehem Steel
Corporation (D) for personal injuries. D filed an answer, and took Mr. Tanzymore's
deposition and then moved to dismiss the action on the ground that the district court lacked
jurisdiction because the controversy is not wholly between citizens of different states. On
the basis of P's deposition, the court ruled there was no diversity of citizenship between
the parties and dismissed the complaint. This appeal resulted.
