“Because the Rooker-Feldman doctrine is jurisdictional, we are obliged to address it before proceeding further in our analysis.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“[Title 9 U.S.C.] § k directs that jurisdiction be determined by the nature and scope of the controversy underlying the arbitration agreement.... While an arbitration agreement may limit the scope of the arbitration by limiting the amount of any award to an amount that is less than the jurisdictional amount, it is the nature and scope of the controversy underlying the arbitration, not the potential arbitration award, that is considered for determining jurisdictional amount. See Doctor’s Assocs., Inc. v. Hamilton, 150 F.3d 157, 160-61 (2d Cir.1998).... [T]he Second Circuit instructed that district courts must “look through” the arbitration award to the underlying cause of action to determine whether the amount in controversy exceeds $75,000. Id. at 160 .”
