ORDER of Partial Dismissal of 1 Complaint, Signed by District Judge John Corbett O'Meara. (WBar)
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
SOUTHERN DIVISION
LISA C. ALSHAB,
Plaintiff,
Case No. 13-11565
v.
Hon. John Corbett O’Meara
OAKLAND COMMUNITY COLLEGE,
Defendant.
________________________________/
ORDER OF PARTIAL DISMISSAL
Plaintiff Lisa C. Alshab filed a two-count complaint in this matter alleging the following
causes of action: Count I, violation of the Elliott-Larsen Civil Rights Act (“ELCRA”), Mich.
Comp. Laws § 37.2202; and Count II, discrimination based on Title VII, 42 U.S.C. § 2002; et
seq.
Although Plaintiff’s cause of action arising under a federal statue is cognizable in this
court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1331, the remaining allegations present claims based solely on
state law. This court declines to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over Plaintiff’s state law
claims in order to avoid jury confusion. See 28 U.S.C. § 1367(c); United Mine Workers v.
Gibbs, 383 U.S. 715 (1966); and Padilla v. City of Saginaw, 867 F. Supp. 1309 (E.D. Mich.
1994).
Therefore, it is hereby ORDERED that Count I is DISMISSED.
Date: April 22, 2013
