Specifically, although Defendant notes 17 that Plaintiff seeks lost wages and other benefits as well as compensation for emotional 18 distress, Defendant provides no information, such as Plaintiff's year salary, which would 19 establish that the jurisdictional amount requirement had been met. Therefore, the Court 20 orders the parties to show cause why this case should not be dismissed for lack of 21 jurisdiction. The parties shall file written responses to this OSC on or before March 21, 2008. 22 The Court sets the OSC for hearing on March 28, 2008 at 11 a.m. There shall be no oral 23 argument unless requested by the Court. 24 IT IS SO ORDERED. 25 DATED: March 10, 2008 26 27 28 Honorable Barry Ted Moskowitz United States District Judge 1 vs. EDUCATION MANAGEMENT CORPORATION, Defendant.
