UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

YEUNG BING KWONG KENNETH, ET. AL., 

Plaintiffs, 

v. 

YEUNG CHI SHING HOLDING (DELAWARE),

INC., ET AL., 

Defendants. 

Case No. 4:18-cv-07644-YGR 

ORDER DISMISSING CASE WITHOUT 

PREJUDICE

Re: Dkt. No. 65 

The Court issued an order granting defendants’ motion to dismiss plaintiffs’ second 

amended complaint. (Dkt. No. 65.) In the order, the Court held that Kenneth and the entity 

plaintiffs were inadequate representatives under Rule 23.1, and that, because the dismissed 

derivative claims provided federal question jurisdiction, the Court was left without subject-matter 

jurisdiction. (Id. at 17.) However, “in light of the gravity of the allegations in the second 

amended complaint, the Court [granted] leave to amend to allow plaintiffs an opportunity to 

substitute other appropriate representative individuals or entities unaffiliated or owned by Kenneth 

in place of Kenneth and the entity plaintiffs.” (Id.) The Court provided that “[t]o the extent that 

an appropriate representative plaintiff is substituted into this matter, the third amended complaint 

shall be filed no later than February 21, 2020.” (Id.) A “[f]ailure to do so will result in a sua 

sponte dismissal without prejudice effective February 24, 2020.” (Id.) Plaintiff did not file a third 

amended complaint with the Court in this action. 

Accordingly, and in light of the Court’s prior order granting defendants’ motion to dismiss, 

this matter is DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE. The Clerk of the Court is directed to close this 

case. 

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

Dated: February 28, 2020
