ORDER DENYING MOTION TO DISMISS

Defendants move to dismiss Plaintiff's claim for violation of California's Unruh Civil Rights Act, Cal. Civ. Code. § 51 et seq. on the grounds that the complaint does not comply with California procedural rules concerning the pleading of construction-related accessibility claims. Because "state pleading standards do not apply in federal court," Oliver v. In-N-Out Burgers, 286 F.R.D. 475, 477 (S.D. Cal. 2012), and the complaint adequately states a claim under the applicable federal pleading standards (see Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662 (2009); Bell Atlantic Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544 (2007)), the motion is DENIED.

It is SO ORDERED.
