Disposition notice
On November 4, 2026, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California adopted in full the magistrate judge’s October 19, 2026 findings and recommendations and granted pro se plaintiffs Jerry Wagner and Danny Wagner’s motion to remand their action against Freedom Mortgage Corporation, LoanDepot.com, LLC, and Affinia Default Services LLC to Kern County Superior Court. No objections to the findings and recommendations were filed within the 14-day period, and the court conducted de novo review under 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1), concluding the findings were supported by the record and proper analysis. The court noted that defendants’ motions to dismiss and accompanying requests for judicial notice (Docs. 59, 60, 62, 63) remain pending on the remanded state-court docket. The order does not set out the underlying jurisdictional reasoning, which is contained in the referenced findings and recommendations at Doc. 78.
