Honorable Bernard Zimmerman

I, SHARON L. LAPIN, for my Response to this Honorable Court’s Order To Show Cause,

PACER system, Plaintiff has determined that there appear to have been two separate Case

Numbers assigned to this matter. Specifically, these Case Numbers appear to have been 3:09-cv04765-JSW, and (the Case Number here): 3:09-cv-04761-BZ.

Case Number 04765-JSW was Dismissed, Without Prejudice, by Order of the Honorable

Jeffrey S. White on February 17, 2010. (3:09-cv-04765-JSW; Docket No. 34) 

Until Plaintiff received this Court’s Order To Show Cause (Docket No. 9) Plaintiff was

unaware that a second Case, with a different Case Number, remained pending in this Court. 

Accordingly, Plaintiff respectfully requests that this Honorable Court issue its Order,

dismissing all claims herein, as against all parties hereto, without prejudice, consistent with the

above-referenced Order of Dismissal, Without Prejudice, issued by the Honorable Jeffrey S. White

on February 17, 2010, regarding the inadvertent “companion” case. With regard to the remaining

case, no Defendant has yet been served herein, and no unfair prejudice or harm will result to any

Defendant as a result of granting the requested dismissal, without prejudice.

I declare under penalty and perjury under the laws of the State of California that the

foregoing is true and correct and if called as a witness I could testify competently hereto. 

Respectfully submitted,

Dated: March 25, 2010 LAW OFFICES OF SHARON L. LAPIN
