ORDER DENYING BAVISHI’S REQUEST

TO FILE COUNTERCLAIMS; DENYING

WITHOUT PREJUDICE BAVISHI’S

REQUEST TO PARTICIPATE IN NINTH

CIRCUIT MEDIATION; DENYING

BAVISHI’S REQUEST TO AMEND

COUNTERCLAIMS

(Docket Nos. 325, 330)

On June 1, 2007, Shrenik Bavishi (“Bavishi”), a member of the class who opted out

of the class settlement, filed a request for permission to file a document entitled

“Counterclaims and a Request for Relief” in the instant action, by which document Bavishi

apparently seeks relief for asserted misconduct by plaintiffs’ counsel with respect to the

settlement of the instant action. The Court has granted final approval of the settlement and

has entered judgment in the instant action; the judgment is currently on appeal. “Once a

notice of appeal is filed, the district court is divested of jurisdiction over the matters being

appealed.” See National Resources Defense Council, Inc. v. Southwest Marine Inc., 242

F.3d 1163, 1166 (9th Cir. 2001). Accordingly, Bavishi’s request to file counterclaims is

hereby DENIED.

Also before the Court is Bavishi’s “Request for Permission to File His Statement and

Request for Permission to Submit Correction,” filed June 11, 2007. Pursuant to such

request, Bavishi seeks (1) leave to amend his proposed counterclaims and (2) permission

to participate in a mediation before the Ninth Circuit Mediation Office. In light of the above

ruling, Bavishi’s request for leave to amend his proposed counterclaims is hereby DENIED

as moot. Bavishi’s request to participate in mediation before the Ninth Circuit Mediation

Office is hereby DENIED without prejudice to Bavishi’s raising such request with the Ninth

Circuit. 

This order terminates Docket Nos. 325 and 330.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
