This action arises out of a mortgage loan transaction in

2006. Presently before the Court is a Motion by Plaintiff to

Remand this action to Superior Court, County of Sacramento.

Plaintiff initially filed suit in Superior Court alleging

claims under both state and federal laws, including a cause of

action for violation of the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act

(“RESPA”), 12 U.S.C. § 2600 et seq.

 Because oral argument will not be of material assistance, 1

the Court ordered this matter submitted on the briefing. E.D.

Cal. Local Rule 230(g).

2

Defendant Wachovia Mortgage subsequently removed the suit to

federal court, Eastern District of California, on the basis of

federal question jurisdiction. 

On February 25, 2010 Plaintiff filed a First Amended

Complaint abandoning his federal claim under RESPA. Only

Plaintiff’s state law claims remain. Plaintiff subsequently

filed this Motion for Remand, to which no Defendants have filed

Opposition. Defendant Wachovia Mortgage has filed a Statement of

Non-Opposition to Plaintiff’s Motion. 

With only Plaintiffs’ state law claims remaining, this Court

ceases to have subject matter jurisdiction over the suit. The

Court declines to exercise pendent jurisdiction over the

remaining state claims.

Without opposition and without a basis for jurisdiction,

Plaintiff’s Motion for Remand (Docket No. 25) is hereby GRANTED.1

The matter is hereby REMANDED to Superior Court, County of

Sacramento. The Clerk is directed to close the file. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: July 23, 2010
