Date Filed Document Text
February 11, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 13 MINUTES (IN CHAMBERS) ORDER DECLINING SUPPLEMENTAL JURISDICTION AND DISMISSING UNRUH ACT CLAIM by Judge Stanley Blumenfeld, Jr.: On 1/27/2022, the Court ordered Plaintiff to show cause why it should not decline supplemental jurisdiction over Plaintiff's Unruh Act claim in light of the exceptional circumstances described in the Ninth Circuit's recent decision in Arroyo v. Rosas, 19 F.4th 1202 (9th Cir. 2021) #11 . Plaintiff's response consists largely of generic, irrelevant arguments and does not meaningfully address the Arroyo court's comity concerns #12 . For the reasons in this order, the Court declines to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over Plaintiff's Unruh Act claim and dismisses the claim without prejudice. See document for further details.

January 27, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 11 MINUTE ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE by Judge Stanley Blumenfeld, Jr.: This case is still at a very early stage, and this Court has not yet addressed or adjudicated the merits of any of Plaintiff's claims. This appears to be a case in which the Court should decline supplemental jurisdiction over Plaintiff's Unruh Act claim under Section 1367(c)(4) to protect the comity interests identified in Arroyo v. Rosas,19 F.4th 1202 (9th Cir. 2021). Accordingly, the Court ORDERS Plaintiff within 14 days after entry of this Order to show cause in writing why the Court should not dismiss without prejudice his Unruh Act claim under Section 1367(c)(4). If Plaintiff fails to file a response within 14 days after entry of this Order, the Court will decline to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over his Unruh Act claim, and the Unruh Act claim will be automatically dismissed without prejudice without further order of the Court. See document for further details. Court Reporter: N/A. (gk)
