No. 2:13-cv-2596 KJM CKD PS

v.

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

U. S. BANK NATIONAL
ASSOCIATION, et al.,
Defendants.

Plaintiff is proceeding in this action pro se. In the complaint, plaintiff complains about an

18
19

allegedly wrongful foreclosure. Plaintiff alleges only state law claims. The complaint does not

20

allege a basis for subject matter jurisdiction in this court. The federal courts are courts of limited

21

jurisdiction. In the absence of a basis for federal jurisdiction, plaintiff’s claims cannot proceed in

22

this venue. Because there is no basis for federal subject matter jurisdiction evident in the

23

complaint, plaintiff will be ordered to show cause why this action should not be dismissed.

24

Failure to allege a proper basis for subject matter jurisdiction will result in a recommendation that

25

the action be dismissed.
