1 2 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 3 NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 4 SCOTT JOHNSON, 5 Case No. 21-cv-04545-JCS Plaintiff, 6 5 V. ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

TEA HUB, LLC, Defendant. 9 10 11 Plaintiff Scott Johnson brings a federal claim under the Americans with Disabilities Act 12 || (“ADA”) and, invoking the Court’s supplemental jurisdiction under

, a state law

13 || claim under California’s Unruh Civil Rights Act. The Ninth Circuit has held that comity concerns

14 || arising from California’s procedural rules for disability access cases brought by frequent plaintiffs 15 || like Johnson constitute exceptional circumstances that may be sufficient to decline supplemental a 16 jurisdiction. See Arroyo vy. Rosas,

(9th Cir. 2021). This Court has

= 17 || previously held that the reasoning of Arroyo warrants declining jurisdiction in a typical case where

18 || a high-frequency litigant has brought parallel ADA and Unruh Act claims and no decision has yet 19 || been reached on the merits of either claim. See generally Garcia v. Maciel, No. 21-cv-03743-JCS, 20

(N.D. Cal. Feb. 9, 2022). Johnson is therefore ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE 21 why the Court should not decline to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over his Unruh Act claim 22 || for the reasons stated in Garcia v. Maciel, by filing a response to this order no later than December 23 || 7, 2022. 24 IT IS SO ORDERED. 25 Dated: November 30, 2022 26 € J PH C. SPERO 27 ief Magistrate Judge 28
