In the earlier-filed lead case, C 10-01405 JSW, the matter comes before the Court upon
25
consideration of: (1) a motion to dismiss pursuant to Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6)
26
filed by Defendant, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“Wells Fargo”); (2) a motion to dismiss pursuant
27
to Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) filed by Defendant, First American Trustee

The Court has considered the parties’ papers, relevant legal authority, and the record in this
3
case. For the reasons set forth in the remainder of this Order, the Court HEREBY GRANTS
4
Well’s Fargo motion to dismiss without prejudice and GRANTS First American’s motion for a
5
more definite statement.
6
In the related matter, C 12-06548 JSW, the same defendants have moved to dismiss or
7
for a more definite statement. The Court GRANTS the motions to dismiss based on a finding
8
that this Court lacks jurisdiction. Plaintiffs may amend the complaint in the earlier-filed lead
9
case to address newer factual allegations and to consolidate the proceedings.

For the Northern District of California
United States District Court

BACKGROUND
On December 11, 2006, Plaintiffs filed an action against Defendants First American
12
Servicing Company (“ACS”), First American (the trustee of plaintiff’s deed of trust) and Wells
13
Fargo entitled Satre v. American Services Co., Action No, MSC 06-02525 (“State Court
14
Action”). The State Court Action involved claims based on a promissory note that Plaintiffs
15
executed and secured by a deed of trust on their property at 530 Santa Fe Avenue, Richmond,
16
California 94801. Plaintiffs alleged that they called ACS to discuss ways to avoid foreclosing
17
on their house due to short term financial difficulties. (First Amended Complaint (“FAC”) at ¶
18
42.) Plaintiffs then defaulted and entered into a forbearance agreement to allow them to cure
19
the default and Defendant ACS proceeded with foreclosure on the property in December 2006.
20
Plaintiffs soon filed action to enjoin the foreclosure sale and, on August 12, 2010, the state
21
issued a Statement of Decision in favor of ACS.
22
Appearing pro se, Plaintiffs filed a complaint before this Court alleging a cause of action
23
for violations of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 U.S.C. Section 1692 et seq.
24
(“FDCPA”). In addition to suing Defendants for activities related to the loan servicing and
25
foreclosure proceedings on their home, Plaintiffs also named Glenn Wechsler (“Wechsler”),
26
counsel for ACS in the State Court Action, for his conduct in the state litigation. On October
27
15, 2010, Plaintiffs filed their First Amended Complaint which alleges twenty-two separate
28
causes of action including claims under the FDCPA and multiple state causes of action.
2
1
In 2010, Defendants First American and Wechsler moved to dismiss the First Amended
2
Complaint.1 On January 5, 2011, this Court granted First American and Weshsler’s motion to
3
dismiss and dismissed the case under the Rooker-Feldman doctrine. The Ninth Circuit affirmed
4
in part, reversed in part, and remanded. Satre v. Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. et al., 507 Fed. Appx.
5
655, 655 (9th Cir. 2013). The Ninth Circuit agreed the “district court property determined that
6
Wechsler is immune from FDCPA liability” but reversed, stating “the district court incorrectly
7
concluded that it lacked jurisdiction under Rooker-Feldman doctrine.” Id. at 655-56.
alternative, First American moves for a more definite statement. In the related matter, C 12-
10
06548, the same defendants move to dismiss or for a more definite statement. That later-filed
11
For the Northern District of California
Defendants Wells Fargo and First American now move to dismiss the suit and, in the

15
The Court shall address additional facts as necessary to its analysis in the remainder of
this Order.

ANALYSIS
A.
Legal Standard.
18
1.
19
A motion to dismiss is proper under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) where the
20
pleadings fail to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. The Court’s “inquiry is limited
21
to the allegations in the complaint, which are accepted as true and construed in the light most
22
favorable to the plaintiff.” Lazy Y Ranch LTD v. Behrens, 546 F.3d 580, 588 (9th Cir. 2008).
23
Even under the liberal pleading standard of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 8(a)(2), “a
24
plaintiff’s obligation to prove the ‘grounds’ of his ‘entitle[ment] to relief’ requires more than
25
label and conclusions, and a formulaic recitation of the elements of a cause of action will not
26
do.” Bell Atlantic Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 555 (2007) (citing Papasan v. Allain, 478
27
U.S. 265, 286 (1986)). Pursuant to Twombly, a plaintiff must not merely allege conduct that is
Motion to Dismiss.
28

Wells Fargo did not move to dismiss at that time.
3
1
conceivable but must instead allege “enough facts to state a claim to relief that is plausible on
2
its face.” Id. at 570. “A claim has facial plausibility when the plaintiff pleads factual content
3
that allows the court to draw the reasonable inference that the defendant is liable for the
4
misconduct alleged.” Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 678 (2009) (citing Twombly, 550 U.S. at
5
556). If the allegations are insufficient to state a claim, a court should grant leave to amend,
6
unless amendment would be futile. See, e.g., Reddy v. Litton Indus., Inc., 912 F.2d 291, 296
7
(9th Cir. 1990); Cook, Perkiss & Liehe, Inc. v. N. Cal. Collection Serv., Inc., 911 F.2d 242, 246-
8
47 (9th Cir. 1990).
9
2.
Federal Rule of Civil Procedures 12(e) provides that “ [a] party may move for a more
11

United States District Court
10
Motion for More Definite Statement.
definite statement of a pleading to which a responsive pleading is allowed but which is so vague
12
or ambiguous that the party cannot reasonably prepare a response.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(e). A
13
motion for a more definite statement must be considered in light of the liberal pleading standard
14
under Rule 8(a). Bureerong v. Uvawas, 922 F. Supp. 1450, 1461 (C.D. Cal. 1996). Thus, the
15
purpose of Rule 12(e) is to provide relief from a pleading that is unintelligible, not one that is
16
simply lacking in detail. EEOC v. Alia Corp., 842 F. Supp. 2d 1243, 1250 (E.D. Cal. 2012).
17
Therefore, a motion for a more definite statement is warranted if the complaint is so indefinite
18
that the defendant cannot understand the claim being asserted and is unable to frame a response.
19
See, e.g., Amaral v. Wachovia Mortg. Corp., 692 F. Supp. 2d 1226, 1230 (E.D. Cal. 2010),
20
Committee for Immigrant Rights of Sonoma County v. County of Sonoma, 644 F. Supp. 2d 1177,
21
1191 (N.D. Cal. 2009).
22
B.
23
Wells Fargo’s Motion to Dismiss.
Wells Fargo moves to dismiss the First Amended Complaint for both (1) lack of subject
24
matter jurisdiction and (2) failure to state a claim under the FDPCA. Plaintiffs are the master of
25
their own complaint. See Holmes Group, Inc. v. Vornado Air Circulation Systems, Inc., 535
26
U.S. 826, 831 (2002). Here, Plaintiffs attempt to state a federal cause of action under the
27
FDCPA, which would, if properly stated, afford the Court jurisdiction over this matter. See 28
28
4
1
U.S.C. § 1331. However, Plaintiffs fail to plead that Wells Fargo qualifies as a debt collector
2
under the FDCPA.
3
Generally, the FDCPA prohibits debt collectors “from making false or misleading
4
representations and from engaging in various abusive and unfair practices in collecting debts.”
5
Klohs v. Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., 901 F. Supp. 2d 1253, 1257 (D. Haw. 2012); see also Heintz
6
v. Jenkins, 514 U.S. 291, 292 (1995). To state a claim under the FDCPA, Plaintiff must first
7
allege that Wells Fargo is a debt collector as defined under the FDCPA Section 1692a(6). See,
8
e.g., Schlegel v. Wells Fargo Bank, NA, 720 F.3d 1204, 1208 (9th Cir. 2013) (“The complaint
9
must plead factual content that allows the court to draw the reasonable inference that Wells
Fargo is a debt collector.”) (internal citations omitted).
11
For the Northern District of California
United States District Court
10
The FDCPA defines “debt collectors” as
12
13
14
(1) any person who uses an instrumentality of interstate commerce or
the mails in any business the principal purpose of which is the
collection of debts, or (2) any person who regularly collects or
attempts to collect, directly or indirectly, debts owed to or asserted to
be owed to or due another.
15
15 U.S.C.§ 1692a(6). In interpreting the definition of debt collector, “courts have consistently
16
held that the FDCPA does not apply to . . . mortgage servicing companies, or assignees of the
17
mortgage debt, as long as debt was not in default at the time the debt was obtained.” Klohs, 901
18
F. Supp. 2d at 1258; see also 15 U.S.C. § 1692a(6)(F)(iii) (a debt collector does not . . .
19
“concern[] a debt which was not in default at the time it was obtained by such a person”); Jara
20
v. Aurora Loan Servs., 852 F. Supp. 2d 1204, 1211 (N.D. Cal. 2012) (stating the “legislative
21
history of section 1692a(6) indicates conclusively that a debt collector does not include the
22
consumer’s creditors, a mortgage servicing company, or an assignee of debt, as long as the debt
23
was not in default at the time it was assigned.”) (quoting Perry v. Stewart Title, Co., 756 F.2d
24
1197, 1208 (5th Cir. 1985); see also Soriano v. Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., 2012 WL 1536065, at
25
*8 (D. Haw. Apr. 30, 2012) (“Wells Fargo Defendants are not ‘debt collectors’ under the
26
FDCPA if they were loan services that were servicing loans before they went into default and
27
thereafter sought to collect the debt.”); Lal v. American Home Serv. Inc., 680 F. Supp. 2d 1218,
28
1224 (E.D. Cal. 2010) (“The law is well settled that FDCPA’s definition of debt collectors does
5
1
not include the consumer’s creditors, a mortgage servicing company, or any assignee of the
2
debt.”) (internal quotation omitted).
3
Additionally, the Ninth Circuit has found that plaintiffs are required to allege a factual
4
basis in the complaint from which “[the court] could plausibly infer that the principal purpose of
5
Wells Fargo’s business is debt collection.” Schlegel, 720 F.3d at 1209. In Schlegel, the court
6
found that plaintiffs had not alleged a factual basis that would allow the court to infer Wells
7
Fargo’s principal purpose is debt collection. Id. Rather, plaintiffs were only able to allege that
8
“debt collection is some part of Well’s Fargo business, which is insufficient to state a claim
9
under the FDCPA.” Id.
Similarly here, Plaintiffs have failed to allege that Wells Fargo is a debt collector under
11
For the Northern District of California
United States District Court
10
the FDCPA. According to their First Amended Complaint, Plaintiffs obtained services from
12
Wells Fargo before their mortgage loan went into default. For that reason alone, Wells Fargo
13
cannot be considered debt collector. See 15 U.S.C. 1692a(6)(F)(iii). See also, Klohs, 901 F.
14
Supp. 2d at 1258 (holding that Wells Fargo is not a debt collector because the loan was not in
15
default when Wells Fargo obtained it); Soriano, 2012 WL 1536065, at *8 (“[T]he definition [of
16
debt collector is not intended] to cover the activities of . . . mortgage service companies and
17
others who service outstanding debts for others, so long as the debts were not in default when
18
taken for servicing.”) (internal quotations omitted).
19
Additionally, the Ninth Circuit has indicated that while “debt collection might be some
20
part Wells Fargo’s business,” debt collection is not the principal purpose of Wells Fargo
21
business, which is a requirement under FDCPA’s definition of debt collector. Schlegel, 720 F.3d
22
at 1209. Plaintiffs have not alleged that debt collection is the principal purpose of Wells Fargo’s
23
business. Therefore, as currently pled, Plaintiffs’ First Amended Complaint has not adequately
24
set forth facts that would allow the Court to draw the reasonable inference that Wells Fargo is a
25
debt collector. See id.
26
Accordingly, the Court GRANTS Wells Fargo’s motion to dismiss without prejudice.
27
The Court grants Plaintiffs leave to amend if they can allege facts sufficient to allow the
28
reasonable inference that Wells Fargo is a debt collector. With regard to the remaining
6
1
allegations against Wells Fargo, the Court finds they are so uncertain and indefinite as to require
2
amendment as detailed below.
3
C.
First American’s Motion for a More Definite Statement.
As an alternative to their motion to dismiss, First American moves for the Plaintiffs to
4
American alleges “[t]he claims against Defendants in this action are so vague, unclear,
7
uncertain and indefinite” and “no specific allegations are provided as to what each defendant
8
knew or did that could possibly be the basis for any viable claims against them.” (First
9
American Motion at 18:24-27.) “A Rule 12(e) motion is proper only if the complaint is do
10
indefinite that the defendant cannot ascertain the nature of the claim being asserted, i.e., so
11
For the Northern District of California
provide a more definite statement of the claims asserted against them.2 Specifically, First
6
United States District Court
5
vague that the defendant cannot begin to frame a response.” Amaral, 692 F. Supp. 2d at 1230.
12
In Committee for Immigrant Rights, the court found a motion for a more definite statement was
13
appropriate because the complaint failed to notify defendant of the claims it needed to defend
14
against. 644 F. Supp. 2d. at 1208. The complaint did not specify “which defendants [were]
15
liable for which legals claims or how they [were] liable.” Id. The court ordered plaintiffs to
16
amend their complaint to include a “simple, concise and direct averments explaining what
17
actions each defendant took and why those actions are unlawful” in order to give the defendants
18
a fair opportunity to frame the responsive pleading. Id. at 1209. The amended complaint
19
needed to specify clearly which defendant is being sued “under which specific legal theory and
20
include specific allegations of fact stating how each defendant is alleged to have violated
21
plaintiff’s legal rights.” Id.
Here, Plaintiffs’ allegations do not provide First American with a basis to respond to the
22
23
pleadings. The First Amended Complaint does not properly notify First American “of the
24
claims [it is] defending against. Nor does it provide the court with the clarity needed to resolve
25
significant legal issues. . . . It is unclear at best.” See id. at 1208. Plaintiffs’ complaint is forty-
26
nine pages long and alleges twenty-two causes of action against four different defendants. The
27
facts alone are twenty-four pages long. (See FAC 1-23.) The twenty-two causes of action do

Because the Court grants First American’s motion for a more definite statement, it
renders its motion to dismiss moot.
7
2
other defendants) may be liable or for what specific causes of action. Many causes of action do
3
not even specify First American as a defendant. In the causes of action that do indicate First
4
American as a defendant, Plaintiffs fail sufficiently to allege any of their claims because their
5
causes of action are unintelligible, vague, and ambiguous. See id. at 1208. Similar to the
6
plaintiffs in Committee for Immigrant Rights, Plaintiffs here do not specify “which defendants
7
are liable for which legals claims or how they are liable.” 644 F. Supp. 3d at 1208. Plaintiffs
8
make only a repeated and general reference to various sections of the FDCPA, without alleging
9
specific facts to show a violation, and accordingly, do not allow First American (or any other
10
defendant) to frame an appropriate response. Plaintiffs’ complaint does not contain “specific
11
For the Northern District of California
not contain specific factual allegations indicating how Plaintiffs allege First American (or the
2
United States District Court
1
factual allegations showing” any specific violations of the FDCPA. See id. at 1209. Plaintiffs’
12
complaint is “so vague [and] ambiguous that [defendants] cannot reasonably prepare a
13
response.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(e).
14
In going forward, the Court requires clarity: “the additional clarity and specificity will
15
go a long way towards minimizing motion practice concerning the pleadings. On the other
16
hand, an amended complaint that closely resembles the current complaint will undoubtably
17
produce more motions to dismiss.” Committee for Immigrant Rights, 644 F. Supp. 2d at 1209 .
18
Because Plaintiffs appear pro se, the Court is required to give Plaintiffs some leniency to
19
overcome deficiencies unless amendment would be futile. See Eldridge v. Block, 832 F.2d
20
1132, 1135-36 (9th Cir. 1987). Therefore, the Court will allow Plaintiffs another opportunity to
21
allege their claims.
22
The Court require that Plaintiffs plead facts that would allow First American (and the
23
other defendants) to respond to the complaint. As a threshold matter, “[p]laintiff must first
24
allege that she [or he] has been exposed to abusive debt collection practices by debt collectors.”
25
Fleming v. Pickard, 581 F.3d 922, 925 (9th Cir. 2009) (internal citations omitted). “A suit
26
brought under the FDCPA must involve a ‘debt’ within the meaning of the statute. The statute
27
defines ‘debt’” in 15 U.S.C. 1692a(5). Id. Plaintiffs must also allege that First American is a
28
‘debt collector’ as defined by the FDCPA Section 1692a(6). Schlegel, 720 F.3d at 1208. As the
8
1
FDPCA only applies to debt collectors, “the complaint must plead factual content that allow the
2
court to draw a reasonable inference” that First American is, in fact, a debt collector. Id. In
3
order to make such a showing, Plaintiff must allege facts to show that First American meet both
4
prongs of the definition: “(1) any person who uses any instrumentality of interstate commerce
5
or the mails in any business the principal purpose of which is the collection of any debts,” and
6
(2) any person who regularly collects or attempts to collect, directly or indirectly, debt owed or
7
due or asserted to be owed or due another.” 15 U.S.C. § 1692a(6).
8
9
If Plaintiffs are able to establish this threshold matter, Plaintiffs must then adequately
allege violations of the FDCPA by specifying the appropriate subsections and detailing factual
allegations to support the allegations of any specific violations. See Janti v. Encore Capital
11
For the Northern District of California
United States District Court
10
Group, Inc., 2010 WL 3058260, at *4-5 (S.D. Cal. Aug, 3, 2010). For example, when alleging
12
a violation of any subsection of 1692(e), the courts will analyze the claim under the “least
13
sophisticated debtor” standard. Id. at *5. Plaintiff must show that First American’s actions
14
would have deceived a hypothetical least sophisticated debtor. Id., see also Wade v. Regional
15
Credit Ass’n, 87 F.3d 1098, 1100 (9th Cir. 1996) (holding there was no FDCPA violation
16
because the least sophisticated debtor would not see the letter as a threat); Gonzales v. Arrow
17
Fin. Servs. LLC, 489 F. Supp. 2d 1140, 1152-53 (S.D. Cal. 2007) (finding liability under
18
Section 1692e(10) because a least sophisticated debtor would have found language in the letter
19
deceiving and misleading).
20
Plaintiffs need to comply with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 8(a)(2) to ensure their
21
complaint “is a short and plain statement of the claim showing that the pleader is entitled to
22
relief.” In order to do so, it is important that Plaintiffs allege specific causes of action under the
23
FDCPA with specific, clear, and concise factual allegations to support its specific causes of
24
action. Without setting out clear and concise allegations under their sole federal cause of
25
action, the Court may not properly exercise jurisdiction over this matter.
26
D.
27
28
Related Later-Filed Matter, C 12-06548 JSW.
In the related later-filed matter, C 12-06548 JSW, Plaintiffs attempt to state causes of
action for unfair and deceptive practices, forgery, conversion and to quiet title. Again, the same
9
1
defendants move to dismiss or for a more definite statement.3 In the earlier-filed matter,
2
Plaintiffs have failed to state a cause of action under federal law. “The mere presence of a
3
federal issue in a state cause of action does not automatically confer federal-question
4
jurisdiction.” Merrell Dow Pharm., Inc. v. Thompson, 478 U.S. 804, 813 (1986). Instead, in
5
order to confer jurisdiction, the cause of action must raise a substantial federal question. Grable
6
& Sons Metal Products, Inc. v. Darue Engineering & Mfg., 545 U.S. 308, 314 (2005).
7
Accordingly, because the Court lacks jurisdiction to hear the related matter, it is dismissed.4
8
9
In an effort to coordinate proceedings, to the extent Plaintiffs intend to make any factual
allegations from the 2012 complaint or to state claims based upon those newer facts, the Court
shall permit Plaintiffs to incorporate all related facts and potential claims for consolidated
11
For the Northern District of California
United States District Court
10
proceedings in this matter, C 10-01405 JSW. Accordingly, should Plaintiffs file an amended
12
complaint in response to this Order and assuming they are able to state a federal cause of action,
13
Plaintiffs may incorporate more recent facts premised upon the same property, relating to the
14
same mortgage loan, and the same parties who serviced that loan.
15
CONCLUSION
16
17
For the foregoing reasons, this Court GRANTS Wells Fargo’s motion to dismiss without
prejudice and GRANTS First American’s motion for a more definite statement.
18
Plaintiffs shall file their amended complaint, if any, in compliance with this Order by no
19
later than December 6, 2013. If Plaintiffs elect to file an amended complaint, Plaintiffs should
20
take care to clearly and simply allege the facts in support of their allegations. Moreover, they
21
shall attribute their alleged conduct to each specific defendant. To the extent Plaintiffs’
22
allegations are premised on purported fraud or misrepresentations, Plaintiffs shall clearly allege
23
what statements were made to them by whom and when in compliance with Federal Rule of
24
Civil Procedure 9. If Plaintiffs fail to file an amended complaint by December 6, 2013, or if
25
they file an amended complaint which fails to comply with the Federal Rules of Civil
26
Procedure, this action will be dismissed with prejudice under Rule 41(b).
27
28
3
The Court DENIES Plaintiffs’ request for sanctions.
4
A separate judgment shall issue.
10
1
Furthermore, this Court ADVISES Plaintiffs that a Handbook for Pro Se Litigants,
2
which contains helpful information about proceeding without an attorney, is available though
3
the Court’s website or in the Clerk’s office. The Court also advises Plaintiffs that they may
4
wish to seek assistance from the Legal Help Center. Plaintiffs may call the Legal Help Center
5
at (415) 782-9000, extension 8657, or sign up on the 15th Floor of the Courthouse, Room 2796,

for a free appointment with an attorney who may be able to provide basic legal help, but not

legal representation.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
