ORDER DENYING

________________________________/
Defendant West Coast Children’s Clinic requests that the

14

Court enter judgment as to the claims against it by Plaintiffs

15

Ronald J., Nora J. and Noah J., by and through their guardian ad

16

litem, Curtis R. Namba.

17

the Court dismissed Plaintiffs’ claims against it and that

18

Plaintiffs did not amend their complaint to re-assert the claims

19

against it within the time period permitted by the Court.

20

In support thereof, Defendant states that

Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 54 provides in part, “When an

21

action presents more than one claim for relief . . . or when

22

multiple parties are involved, the court may direct entry of a

23

final judgment as to one or more, but fewer than all, claims or

24

parties only if the court expressly determines that there is no

25

just reason for delay.”

Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b).

26

Defendant has not demonstrated that there is no just reason

27

to delay entry of final judgment against it until such time that

28

the Court can enter a judgment adjudicating all the claims and all

1

the parties’ rights and liabilities.

2

DENIES Defendant’s request for entry of partial judgment (Docket

3

No. 32).

4

Accordingly, the Court

IT IS SO ORDERED.
