HISTORICAL
AND REVISION NOTES (FRBP 7019)
ADVISORY COMMITTEE NOTES — 1983
This rule addresses a situation different from that encountered by the
district court when its
jurisdiction is based on diversity of citizenship under 28 U.S.C. § 1332.
Joining of a party whose citizenship is the same as that of an adversary
destroys the district court's
jurisdiction over the entire civil action but under 28 U.S.C. § 1471 the
attempted joinder of such a
person would not affect
the bankruptcy court's jurisdiction over the original adversary proceeding.
ADVISORY COMMITTEE NOTES — 1987 AMENDMENT
The rule is amended to delete the reference to retention of the adversary
proceeding if venue is improper. See 28 U.S.C. § 1412.
