Hoang Minh Le v. Jorge Gutierrez et al.

Summary

The United States District Court for the Central District of California orders the parties to submit a joint status report addressing alleged ADA barriers, remedial measures, and potential summary judgment motions. The Court also orders the plaintiff to show cause why it should exercise supplemental jurisdiction over the Unruh Act and other state-law claims, identify the statutory damages sought, and provide declarations addressing whether the plaintiff and counsel qualify as high-frequency litigants.

Questions Presented

1. Whether the alleged ADA claims could become moot if the defendant voluntarily removes the alleged barriers and demonstrates that they are not reasonably expected to recur.
2. Whether the court should exercise supplemental jurisdiction over the plaintiff's Unruh Act and other state-law claims if the ADA claims become moot.
3. Whether the plaintiff and counsel must provide information concerning the statutory damages sought and their status under California's high-frequency-litigant provisions.
