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,

(1997) (emphasis added) (quoting Carnegie- Mellon Univ. v. Cohill,

(1988)). The Court therefore orders Plaintiff to show cause in writing why the Court should exercise supplemental jurisdiction over the Unruh Act claim and Plaintiff’s other California state law claims. See

(c). Plaintiff shall identify the amount of statutory damages she seeks to recover.
