CITY OF OAKLAND, a municipal corporation,

Plaintiff,

v.
13
MORTIMER HOWARD TRUST, MORTIMER R.
14 HOWARD, and DOES 1-20,
15 Defendants.

This matter comes before the Court on City of Oakland’s Motion to Remand [Docket No. 12].
18
Having read and considered the arguments presented by the parties and the controlling authorities, the
19
Court finds that neither the face of the City’s complaint, nor close scrutiny of its substance, reveals a
20
substantial question of federal law. Moreover, given the absence of any federal claim, the Court
21
declines to exercise supplemental jurisdiction.
22
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT the City of Oakland’s Motion to Remand [Docket No. 12]
23
is GRANTED. These matters are remanded to the Alameda County Superior Court.
24
25
IT IS SO ORDERED.
