PROPOSED ORDER TO TRANSFER – CASE NO. 3:16-CV-04871-RS 

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

SAN FRANCISCO DIVISION 

EDWARD SALAMANCA, on behalf of 

himself and all others similarly situated, 

Plaintiff, 

v.

GENERAL MILLS, INC., 

Defendant.

CASE NO. 3:16-cv-04871-RS 

[PROPOSED] ORDER

TRANSFERRING ACTION TO 

THE DISTRICT OF MINNESOTA 

[28 U.S.C. §1404(a)]

Plaintiff and Defendant have stipulated and agreed that the action should be transferred 

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1404(a) to the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota for 

coordination with two similar actions captioned: Woloszyn v. General Mills, Inc., No. 0:16-cv-02869 

(D. Minn.) and Nuez v. General Mills, Inc., No. 1:16-cv-04731 (E.D.N.Y.). 

All cases allege that certain “100% Natural Whole Grain” labeling for certain General Mills 

Nature Valley products is misleading due to the alleged presence of glyphosate. 

The parties believe that, based on circumstances and claims unique to this case, coordination 

of this action with the Woloszyn and Nuez actions will likely avoid inconsistent legal and factual 

rulings and conserve the courts’ and the parties’ resources.

PROPOSED ORDER TO TRANSFER – CASE NO. 3:16-CV-04871-RS 

Transfer of the action to the District of Minnesota is therefore appropriate under 28 U.S.C. 

§ 1404(a). 

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT: 

(1) This action is transferred to the District of Minnesota; and 

(2) Defendant’s responsive pleading deadline is deferred pending entry of a scheduling order 

by the District of Minnesota in the action.
