ORDER VACATING HEARING AND ORDER ON PLAINTIFFS' REQUEST TO CONSIDER RECENT AUTHORITY

(Doc. No. 16)

ANTHONY W. ISHII, Senior District Judge.

Currently pending before the Court is Defendants' motion to dismiss. Hearing on the motion to dismiss is set for September 12, 2016. The Court has reviewed the papers and has determined that this matter is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Local Rule 230(g).

Additionally, on August 29, 2016, Plaintiffs filed an opposition, and on September 2, 2016, Defendants filed a reply. On September 6, 2016, Plaintiffs filed a request to consider recent authority. See Doc. No. 16. The recent authority is an order on a Rule 12(b)(6) motion from the Central District of California. See id. The order involves similar issues to those raised in this case and was issued on August 30, 2016. See id. The Court will consider the recent decision from the Central District, and will give Defendants the opportunity to respond.1 If Defendants respond to the recent authority, and if the Court determines that a hearing would be beneficial, then the Court will set a new hearing date at that time. Otherwise, there will be no hearing on Defendants' motion to dismiss.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The September 12, 2016 hearing date on Defendants' motion to dismiss is VACATED;

2. Plaintiff's request to consider recent authority is GRANTED; and

3. If Defendants desire to respond to the recent authority identified by Plaintiffs, then Defendants may file a response on or by 4:00 p.m. on September 9, 2016.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
