IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

DUKES, ET AL.,

Plaintiffs,

 v.

 WAL-MART STORES, INC.,

Defendant. /

No. CV 01-02252 CRB

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

Now pending before the Court are two motions for summary judgment filed by

Defendant Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. as to Plaintiff Christine Kwapnoski (dkt. 921) and as to

Plaintiff Deborah Gunter (dkt. 922). These motions are “only on the portion of [plaintiffs’]

claims that overlap with plaintiffs’ proposed classes,” and “therefore serve as the basis for

plaintiffs’ assertion that [plaintiffs’] claims are ‘typical of the claims of the classes.’” After

briefing on these two motions for summary judgment was completed in June 2013, this Court

issued an order denying Plaintiffs’ motion for class certification. See Dkt. 991. 

The Court finds that, in light of the denial of Plaintiffs’ motion for class certification,

it is in the interests of justice to DENY the pending motions for summary judgment without

prejudice. The parties are hereby ORDERED to show cause why the motions should or

should not be denied. The parties shall have 14 days from the issuance of this Order to file a

response with the Court. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: September 23, 2013
