Case No. 13-cv-02834-EDL
ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANTS
PERMISSION TO FILE
SUPPLEMENTAL BRIEF
Re: Dkt. No. 118
12
13
This is a mortgage case on remand from the Ninth Circuit for the Court to reconsider a
14
prior order dismissing the case in light of the California Supreme Court’s decision in Yvanova v.
15
New Century Mortgage Corp., 62 Cal. 4th 919 (Feb. 18, 2016). In the parties’ recent case
16
management conference statement, they agreed that they previously briefed the issue of Yvanova's
17
impact on the case and “agree[d] that their respective positions are set forth in the briefs
18
previously filed with the Ninth Circuit.” They jointly requested that “the Court order the parties to
19
simply re-file their previously submitted briefs via ECF.” In light of this agreement, the Court
20
ordered the parties to file the briefs previously submitted to the Ninth Circuit with this Court. Dkt.
21
No. 111.
22
All parties filed their Ninth Circuit briefs in this Court. However, Plaintiff also filed what
23
appears to be a Reply brief recently filed by counsel in another case before the Ninth Circuit
24
addressing Yvanova. Defendants object to Plaintiff’s unauthorized supplemental filing, and seek
25
to have the supplemental brief from the other case stricken, or alternatively request an opportunity
26
to respond.
27
28
The Court will not strike Plaintiff’s unauthorized supplemental brief. Each group of
Defendants is permitted to file a supplemental brief of no more than five pages, within one week
1
of the date of this Order, responding to any new arguments presented in Plaintiff’s supplemental
2
filing relating to Yvanova.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
