IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

REBEKAH PREWITT, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

v.

SAFEWAY, INC.,

Defendant.

Case No. 16-cv-02753-MMC 

ORDER AFFORDING DEFENDANT 

OPPORTUNITY TO FILE SUR-REPLY

RE: MOTION TO REMAND; 

CONTINUING HEARING ON MOTION 

TO REMAND

Re: Dkt. Nos. 7, 24

Before the Court is the “Motion to Remand Action to San Francisco Superior 

Court,” filed May 26, 2016, by plaintiffs Rebekah Prewitt and Lauren Barry and noticed for 

hearing on July 8, 2016. Defendant Safeway, Inc. (“Safeway”) has filed opposition, to 

which plaintiffs have replied. Having read and considered the papers filed in support of 

and in opposition to the motion, the Court finds it appropriate, for the reasons stated 

below, to afford Safeway an opportunity to file a sur-reply.

In the motion, plaintiffs argue that the instant action should be remanded for 

certain specified reasons. In the reply, however, plaintiffs seek remand on a ground not 

raised in their moving papers, namely, that Safeway failed to prove, by attaching 

evidence to its opposition, that this Court has jurisdiction over the above-titled action. 

Accordingly, Safeway is hereby afforded leave to file, no later than June 30, 2016, 

a sur-reply not to exceed eight pages in length, exclusive of exhibits, in which Safeway 

addresses the above-referenced issue. Given the June 30, 2016, deadline for Safeway’s 

sur-reply, and the Court’s unavailability on July 15, 2016, the hearing on the Motion to
