1 2 3 4 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 5 NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 6 7 PAMELA MARIE SNYDER, Plaintiff, 8 9 10 United States District Court Northern District of California 11 Case No. 15-cv-04228-KAW v. BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., et al., ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE RE ISSUANCE OF A FINAL JUDGMENT AS TO NATIONSTAR Defendants. 12 13 On January 26, 2018, Judge Laporte granted Defendant Nationstar Mortgage, LLC’s 14 (“Nationstar”) motion for summary judgment. (Dkt. No. 151 at 1.) At that time, final judgment 15 was not entered in favor of Defendant Nationstar and against Plaintiff Pamela Snyder. 16 On July 14, 2020, Plaintiff stated that she intended to appeal the January 26, 2018 order 17 granting summary judgment to Defendant Nationstar. Per Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 54(b), 18 “[w]hen an action presents more than one claim for relief . . . or when multiple parties are 19 involved, the court may direct entry of a final judgment as to one or more, but fewer than all, 20 claims or parties only if the court expressly determines that there is no just reason for delay.” 21 In the instant case, while a Rule 54(b) motion has not been filed, there does not appear to 22 be a just reason for delaying the entry of a final judgment in favor of Defendant Nationstar. See 23 Certain Interested Underwriters at Lloyd’s v. Bear, Case No. 15-cv-630-BTM-BLM, 2018 U.S. 24 Dist. LEXIS 141970, at *7 (S.D. Cal. Aug. 21, 2018) (observing that the court could sua sponte 25 certify a judgment as final). Further, Plaintiff has expressed a desire to appeal the summary 26 judgment order, and the rest of the case is unlikely to be resolved in a timely manner due to the 27 ongoing COVID-19 public health emergency. 28 Accordingly, the Court ORDERS all parties to show cause, within 14 days of the date of 1 2 3 this order, why the Court should not enter final judgment in favor of Defendant Nationstar. IT IS SO ORDERED. Dated: July 20, 2020 __________________________________ KANDIS A.
