December 12, 2013 Opinion or Order Filing 9025583537 Filed Order for PUBLICATION (A. WALLACE TASHIMA, WILLIAM A. FLETCHER and JACQUELINE H. NGUYEN) This appeal comes to us in an unusual procedural posture and presents a nuanced issue of appellate jurisdiction. The United States Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation ( JPML ) issued an order that split the claims presented in this and numerous other cases some claims were transferred to the MDL court, while others were remanded to the transferor courts. As a result of the JPML order, the MDL court, when confronted with a motion to dismiss, could only act on a portion of the motion. The MDL court, recognizing that its authority to act was limited to only some of the claims, granted the motion in part, thereby dismissing some, but not all, of the claims pending in this action. (SEE ORDER FOR FULL TEXT) Accordingly, we order a limited remand to the MDL court for its consideration as to whether its May 25, 2012, dismissal order should be certified as an appealable final judgment under Rule 54(b). See, e.g., Nat l Ass n of Home Builders v. Norton, 325 F.3d 1165, 1168 (9th Cir. 2003) ( This matter is therefore remanded to the district court for the limited purpose of its granting or denying plaintiffs motion for a Rule 54(b) certification. ); Quach, 216 F. App x at 666. On limited remand, the district court either should expressly determine that there is no just reason for delay, see Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b), or should decline to enter a Rule 54(b) certification. This panel shall retain jurisdiction over this appeal. A copy of this order shall serve as the mandate of limited remand. See Norton, 325 F.3d at 1168. IT IS SO ORDERED. [8898571]
