Date Filed Document Text
March 27, 2019 Filing 30 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: Plaintiff's motion #27 to file corrected version of the motion #25 to vacate is granted. R. 27-1 stands as the corrected motion; there is no need to file the document separately. The motion to vacate and for jurisdictional discovery is granted in part and denied in part. First, there is no need for jurisdictional discovery because Defendant has not disputed the allegation that there was a disclosure to its non-party vendor, and indeed premised its notice of removal and the Article III standing argument on it. (If Plaintiff had not included the allegation in Paragraph 21 of the complaint, almost surely there would have been no basis for Article III standing (the statutory dispute over who is "aggrieved" is a different issue). But the allegation was included, and here we are.) Second, on review of Plaintiff's motion and the defense response, the better course is to pause briefing on the statute-of-limitations and IWCA-preclusion arguments until after jurisdiction is resolved. Defendant's response, R. 29, to the motion to vacate stands as its response to the Article III and diversity-jurisdiction arguments. Plaintiff shall reply to the Article III and diversity-jurisdiction arguments by 04/15/2019. In light of how the briefing developed, Defendant may file a response to the reply by 04/29/2019. The status hearing of 05/07/2019 remains in place.Emailed notice (slb, )
