On April 4, 2016, Plaintiffs Maria Ahmed and Yassar Ahmed, successors-in-interest to

14

Afroza Chowdhury’s estate, brought an action alleging violations of 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and

15

California law. Dkt. No. 1. On July 1, 2016, the Court dismissed Plaintiffs’ complaint in its

16

entirety with leave to amend. Dkt. No. 29. Plaintiffs timely filed a first amended complaint,

17

which eliminates all claims arising under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and limits Plaintiffs’ allegations to

18

violations of California law.

The Court hereby ORDERS the parties to show cause why federal jurisdiction exists in

20

light of the first amended complaint. The parties shall file concurrent briefs of no more than 5
