UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SCOTT KMETY, an individual, DARLA

KMETY, an individual,

Plaintiff,

CASE NO. 10cv1910-LAB (RBB)

ORDER DISMISSING CERTAIN

CLAIMS; AND

ORDER OF REMAND

vs.

BANK OF AMERICA, INC., a

corporation; MORTGAGE ELECTRONIC

REGISTRATION SYSTEMS, a

corporation; RECONSTRUST

COMPANY, a trustee; and DOES 1

through 20,

Defendants.

On September 30, 2011, the Court issued an order dismissing Plaintiffs’ claims under

the Truth in Lending Act (TILA) and the Real Estate Settlement Practices Act (RESPA),

without prejudice, but requiring Plaintiffs within 14 calendar days to show cause why these

two claims should not be dismissed with prejudice. The order cautioned the parties that if

Plaintiffs did not show cause as ordered, the TILA and RESPA claims would be dismissed

with prejudice and this action remanded to state court.

Since that time, Plaintiffs have not filed any response, nor sought additional time in

which to do so. Plaintiffs’ claims under TILA and RESPA are therefore DISMISSED WITH

PREJUDICE.

Because the Court has dismissed all claims over which it has original jurisdiction,

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1367(c)(3) it declines to exercise jurisdiction over Plaintiffs’ state

claims. See Harrell v. 20th Century Ins. Co., 934 F.2d 203, 205 (9th Cir. 1991) (“[I]it is

generally preferable for a district court to remand remaining pendent claims to state court

. . . .”) This action is therefore REMANDED to the Superior Court of the State of California

for the County of San Diego.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: October 17, 2011
