No. C 17-06011 WHA

In light of today’s order granting defendants’ motions to dismiss pursuant to FRCP

21

12(b)(6), by JULY 2 AT NOON, the parties shall submit a joint statement regarding whether it

22

remains necessary to reach the narrowed FRCP 12(b)(2) motions (which narrowing is

23

appreciated). While the Court remains willing to decide the FRCP 12(b)(2) issue, counsel may

24

prefer to postpone such a ruling until after appellate review of the FRCP 12(b)(6) and no-

25

remand orders.

26

IT IS SO ORDERED.
