Certificates’ (“Plaintiff”) Motion to Remand the above-captioned matter to the 

Superior Court of California, County of Kern was called on February 8, 2010 at 

the 10:00 a.m. calendar call. Joshua Abel of Houser & Allison, APC appeared on 

behalf of plaintiff by telephonic appearance. Defendants, in pro per, appeared in 

the Court. 

Defendants did not file any written opposition to the motion. After 

consideration of Plaintiff’s motion and oral argument at the time of the hearing, 

the Court issued and served its Memorandum of Decision and Order Re: 

Plaintiff’s Motion To Remand on February 10, 2010 as Document 16. This 

memorandum sets forth the Court’s reasoning in detail. 

For the reasons set forth in the Memorandum of Decision, the Court 

hereby GRANTS Plaintiff’s Motion To Remand as follows: 

(1) Federal question jurisdiction is lacking and removal cannot be 

justified on this basis. 

(2) Diversity jurisdiction is lacking and removal cannot be justified on 

this basis. 

Defendants have not shown that the removal was proper. Support for 

removal does not exist for diversity jurisdiction or federal question jurisdiction. 

As a result, subject matter jurisdiction is lacking, and Plaintiff’s Motion To 

Remand is GRANTED. This case is ORDERED remanded to the Kern County 

Superior Court. 

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

Date: February 11, 2010 /s/ OLIVER W. WANGER

 Senior United States District Court Judge
