UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

OAKLAND DIVISION

LAURIE MARIE LASKEY,

Plaintiff,

 v.

VERIZON WIRELESS POWER

PARTNERS, INC., 

Defendant. 

No. C 08-03032 SBA

ORDER

[Docket No. 7]

Before the Court is defendant’s motion to dismiss [Docket No. 7]. Defendant removed this

matter from Sonoma County Superior Court. See Docket No. 1 ¶ 1. Plaintiff’s complaint alleges

defendant made unauthorized connections to her telephone line causing damage and identity theft. 

See id. at 7-9, 12-14. She also alleges she sued because the California “Court of Appeals sent [her]

to the lower court[.]” Id. at 8 ¶ 8. Sua sponte, under Federal Rule of Evidence 201, the Court takes

judicial notice that on November 30, 2007, the California Court of Appeals for the First District

directed plaintiff to return to the superior court level in Laskey v. Sun Microsyss., case A119850,

Laskey v. Intel Corp., case A119849, Laskey v. SBC, case A119848, and Laskey v. DNAI, case

A119847, as she had proceeded to the Court of Appeals by direct writ, without first filing suit in a

superior court. The Court also takes judicial notice, under Rule 201, that plaintiff is currently before

District Judge William H. Alsup in Laskey v. RCN Corp., 08-cv-01333-WHA and Laskey v.

Microsoft Corp., 3:08-cv-01465-WHA, both of which Judge Alsup has ruled are related to reach

other. See Docket No. 29 in case 01333.

Accordingly, the Court VACATES the hearing on defendant’s motion to dismiss, set for

September 9, 2008 at 1:00 p.m. Further, this action is hereby REFERRED, pursuant to Civil Local

Rule 3-12(c), to District Judge William H. Alsup for consideration of whether the case is related to
