On March 23, 2015, plaintiff Louise Gentry filed a first amended complaint, omitting her

24

federal claims for violations of the Truth in Lending Act (“TILA”), 15 U.S.C. § 1641, et seq., and Fair

25

Debt Collection Practices Act (“FDCPA”), 15 U.S.C. § 1692, et seq. On June 11, 2015, the court

26

entered an order dismissing plaintiff’s state law claims for lack of subject matter jurisdiction,

27

observing that it no longer had federal question jurisdiction; that the parties’ citizenship was not

28

diverse; and that the court could not exercise supplemental jurisdiction in light of plaintiff’s

1

abandonment of her federal claims . Accordingly,

1. That plaintiff’s TILA and FDCPA claims be dismissed with prejudice;

5

2. That plaintiff’s state law claims be dismissed without prejudice; and

3. That the action be, and it is hereby, dismissed.
