March 29, 2017 Opinion or Order Filing 44 MINUTE ORDER by Magistrate Judge Jill L. Burkhardt re ECF No. #36 Motion to Compel Production of Documents: The Court hereby SETS a telephonic, counsel-only Oral Argument Hearing for 3/30/2017 at 11:00 AM before Magistrate Judge Jill L. Burkhardt. Counsel shall place a joint call to Judge Burkhardt's chambers for purposes of the Hearing. The Court requests oral argument on whether California law governs the asserted privilege over Plaintiffs' retainer agreements under Federal Rule of Evidence 501 and the unique facts of this case. The Court's tentative ruling is that California law governs Plaintiffs' claim of privilege under Federal Rule of Evidence 501 because: (1) as pled, there is no federal question jurisdiction for this case under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act; (2) this case is in federal court by virtue of diversity jurisdiction only; and (3) state law supplies the rule of decision for each of Plaintiffs' claims (including Plaintiffs' fourth cause of action for alleged breach of implied warranty under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, 15 U.S.C. Section 2303 et seq.). As a result of (1), (2) and (3), this case is more akin to the line of diversity jurisdiction cases holding that state law governs privilege determinations.
