PROCEEDINGS: (IN CHAMBERS) ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE
The court is in receipt of the Complaint filed in this action, which asserts a claim for injunctive relief arising out of an alleged violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”),
42 U.S.C. §§ 12010et seq., and a claim for damages pursuant to California’s Unruh Civil Rights Act (“Unruh Act”),
Cal. Civ. Code §§ 51-53; California’s Disabled Persons Act,
Cal. Civ. Code § 54et seq.; and California’s Unfair Competition Act,
Cal. Bus. & Prof. Code § 17200et seq. (Dkt. 1.) The court notes that it possesses only supplemental jurisdiction over Plaintiff’s California 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(1997) (emphasis added) (quoting Carnegie-Mellon Univ. v. Cohill,
484 U.S. 343, 350(1988)). Given relevant authority on the court’s exercise of supplemental jurisdiction, including but not limited to 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 February 13, 2023, at 5:00 p.m. _____________________________________________________________________________ CIVIL MINUTES – GENERAL 1 Case 8:22-cv-02279-FWS-ADS Document 11 Filed 02/06/23 Page 2 of 2 Page ID #:42 __________________________________________________________________ UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT CENTRAL DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

370 U.S. 626, 629(1962) (“The authority of a federal trial court to dismiss a plaintiffs action with prejudice because of his failure to prosecute cannot seriously be doubted.”); Hells Canyon Pres. Council v. U.S. Forest Serv.,
403 F.3d 693, 689(9th Cir. 2005) (“[C]ourts may dismiss under Rule 41(b) sua sponte, at least under certain circumstances.”); Ash v. Cvetkov,
739 F.2d 493, 496(9th Cir. 1984) (“It is within the inherent power of the court to sua sponte dismiss a case for lack of prosecution.”).
