Case No.: C 09-5385 PVT

ORDER SETTING DEADLINE FOR FILING

AMENDED COMPLAINT; AND CONTINUING

CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE 

On April 15, 2010, this court issued an order to show cause why the case should not be

transferred to either the Western District of Washington or the District of Columbia, on the basis that

those are the only two courts that would have jurisdiction over Plaintiffs’ appeal of the Federal

Deposit Insurance Corporation’s (“FDIC”) denial of their claim under the Financial Institutions

Reform and Recovery Enforcement Act. The court noted that Plaintiffs had not named the FDIC as

a Defendant, but they could still amend their complaint to do so. In their response to the order to

show cause, Plaintiffs requested that the transfer be to the District of Columbia. However, Plaintiffs

have not yet amended their complaint to name the FDIC as a Defendant. Based on this court’s prior

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Case Management Conference scheduled for May 25,

2010 is CONTINUED to July 13, 2010.
