May 16, 2016 Opinion or Order Filing 42 MINUTES OF Motion Hearing held before Judge Christina A. Snyder RE: Defendant's Motion to Dismiss Case 29 . Having determined that plaintiff's sole claim in this action is not preempted by Section 301and because there is no alternative bas is for this court to exercise jurisdictionthe Court concludes that this matter is appropriately remanded to state court for further proceedings. In remanding the action, the Court does not reach the merits of defendant's arguments in the instant motion regarding the collateral estoppel effect on this case of the 2009 action between the Trustees and Smith-Emery. Nor does the Court here consider whether the operative First Amended Complaint sufficiently states a claim for intentional misrepresentation under California law. The Court REMANDS this action to the Los Angeles County Superior Court, Case No. BC587840. (Made JS-6. Case Terminated.) Court Reporter: Laura Elias. (gk)
