ORDER

Because there is litigation pending in the Southern District of California which alleges 

substantially identical claims and involves the same defendant as the instant action and transfer of 

this action to the Southern District of California will therefore avoid duplicative litigation and the 

possibility of inconsistent rulings, save the parties costs and time, and create judicial efficiencies, 

in the interest of justice, 

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Defendant’s Motion to Transfer Action to Southern 

District of California be taken off calendar, and that this action be transferred in its entirety, 

pursuant to Section 1404(a), to the United States District Court for the Southern District of 

California. 

DATED: May 28, 2008
