The Springs At Spanish Trail Association, et

Order Discharging Obligations under the
Order to Show Cause Why this Case

Subject-matter Jurisdiction

Questioning the sufficiency of the citizenship allegations in the complaint, I ordered
11
plaintiff to show cause why this case should not be dismissed for want of subject-matter
12
jurisdiction. ECF No. 34. Plaintiff timely responded. See ECF No. 35. Although plaintiff’s
13
response did not demonstrate to my satisfaction a basis for finding subject-matter jurisdiction,
14
my closer review of the complaint reveals that plaintiff is challenging the constitutionality of
15
NRS Chapter 116 and has thus presented a federal question on the face of the properly pleaded
16
complaint that gives this court jurisdiction to hear this case. See Hall v. N. Am. Van Lines, Inc,
17
476 F.3d 683, 687 (9th Cir. 2007) (“The presence or absence of federal-question jurisdiction is
18
governed by the ‘well-pleaded complaint rule,’ which provides that federal jurisdiction exists
19
only when a federal question is presented on the face of the plaintiff’s properly pleaded
20
complaint.”); ECF No. 1 at 7–9.

Accordingly, with good cause appearing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff’s
obligations under the order to show cause [ECF No. 34] are deemed to have been discharged.
Dated: April 20, 2016.
