Case No. 23-cv-04562-HSG
ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE
Re: Dkt. No. 46
11
BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE
CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY, et
al.,
12
Defendants.
13
Given that it declines to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over Plaintiff’s state claims, the
14
15
Court ORDERS Defendants to show cause why the case should not be remanded in light of
16
Plaintiff’s Amended Complaint, which proceeds only against non-federal defendants and asserts
17
only state law causes of action. 1 See Dkt. No. 46. Defendants must file their response (no more
18
than five pages in length) by May 23, 2024. Defendants’ deadline to answer or oppose Plaintiff’s
19
Amended Complaint is STAYED until further notice.
IT IS SO ORDERED.

While the Amended Complaint’s Eighteenth Cause of Action, for “improper disclosure of
health/medical information,” references “Civ. Code § 56.20, HIPAA,” the Court does not construe
the reference to “HIPAA” as an assertion of a federal law violation, as it previously dismissed any
federal HIPAA claim with prejudice. It instead understands Plaintiff to sue under California state
provisions that, like HIPAA, limit disclosure of patients’ health information.
