Order — Brandon Joe Williams v. SBA (C.D. Cal.)

Summary

Civil minutes recording an in-chambers order of U.S. District Judge R. Gary Klausner in Brandon Joe Williams v. United States Small Business Administration, Case No. 2:24-cv-09553-RGK-SK, U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, filed December 30, 2024 as Document 23. The order rules on the SBA's motion to dismiss and Williams's motion to remand, ECF No. 8 and ECF No. 12. It finds removal under 28 U.S.C. § 1442(a)(1) proper because the SBA is a federal agency with colorable defenses such as sovereign immunity, and denies remand. It grants the motion to dismiss, calling the complaint unintelligible and noting that Williams did not oppose the motion, which the court deems consent under Local Rule 7-12. The court dismisses the action in its entirety; the complaint had sought rescission of an Economic Injury Disaster Loan and $2 million in damages.
