June 15, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 54 ORDER signed by District Judge John A. Mendez on 6/12/2020 GRANTING IN PART AND DENYING IN PART 50 Motion to Dismiss. To the extent that Plaintiffs' dormant commerce doctrine claims rest upon the theory that Sections 19858 and 19858.5 directl y regulate or discriminate against interstate commerce, the Court DISMISSES them without prejudice. Plaintiffs lack standing to allege Sections 19858 and 19858.5 improperly discriminate against out-of-state investors. Moreover, their allegations that these provisions directly regulate interstate commerce fail as a matter of law. Plaintiffs do, however, adequately allege that Sections 19858 and 19858.5 indirectly regulate interstate commerce. To the extent that Plaintiffs' dormant commerce c laims rests upon this theory of liability, the Court DENIES 50 Motion to Dismiss. If Plaintiffs amend their complaint, they shall file an Amended Complaint within 20 days of this Order. Defendants' responsive pleading is due 20 days thereafter. (Huang, H)
