PROCEEDINGS: (IN CHAMBERS) ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

The court observes that the Complaint filed in this action asserts a claim for injunctive relief arising out of an alleged violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”), 42 U.S.C. §§ 12010 et seq., and several state law claims for damages based on violation of the Unruh Civil Rights Act (“Unruh Act”), Cal. Civ. Code §§ 51-53; violation of the Disabled Persons Act, Cal. Civ. Code § 54 et seq.; violation of California Health and Safety Code, § 19955 et seq; and negligence. (See Dkt. 1. ¶¶ 32-51.) The court possesses only supplemental jurisdiction over Plaintiff’s state law claims. See 28 U.S.C. § 1367(a). The supplemental jurisdiction statute “reflects the understanding that, when deciding whether to exercise supplemental jurisdiction, ‘a federal court should consider and weigh in each case, and at every stage of the litigation, the values of judicial economy, convenience, fairness, and comity.’” City of Chicago v. Int’l Coll. of Surgeons, 522 U.S. 156, 173, 118 S. Ct. 523, 534, 139 L. Ed. 2d 525 (1997) (emphasis added) (quoting Carnegie-Mellon Univ. v. Cohill, 484 U.S. 343, 350, 108 S. Ct. 614, 619, 98 L. Ed. 2d 720 (1988)). Given this authority, as well as the Ninth Circuit’s decisions in Arroyo v. Rosas, 19 F.4th 1202 (9th Cir. 2021) and Vo v. Choi, 49 F.4th 1167 (9th Cir. 2022), the court ORDERS Plaintiff to show cause in writing why this court should exercise supplemental jurisdiction over the Unruh Act claim and any other state law claim asserted in the Complaint on or before March 17, 2023, at 5:00 p.m. _____________________________________________________________________________
