Mr. O'Neal:
I am working with Christina Rubalcava on this matter. I saw that you filed an affidavit of service with the court earlier this week, and l understand that you have sent Christina requests for acceptance of service on behalf of the individuals you have named in the complaint. I am writing to discuss service and response deadlines for all of the defendants related to the amended complaint. Apollo Group, Inc.: We continue to believe that your service of the Apollo Group, Inc. in Tennessee was not valid pursuant to Arizona's Rules of Civil Procedure. However, in order to avoid a court fight about this matter, we are willing to accept service on behalf of Apollo Group.
UniveisitY of Phoenix, Inc.: I do not believe that you have attempted to serve the University of Phoenix, but we will also accept service on its behalf. individual Defendants: We have consulted with the most, but not all, of the individual defendants you have named in the complaint. Those whom we have spoken with have agreed that we can accept service on their behalves. We suspect that we will be able to do so for all of the individual defendants, but we will need a few additional days to confirm that.
If you are amenable to allowing us to accept service on behalf of Apollo Group, Inc. and University of Phoenix, Inc., please send me acceptance of service forms for those entities. I will then return them to you at the same time as I return the acceptance notices for the individual defendants. That will mean that all of the responses to the amended complaint for all of the defendants will be due on the same date, which will alleviate multiple responses.

Doc 32 Filed 05/26/15 Entered 05/27/15 14:18:09 Main Document Page 19 of 50
Desc
In addition, we ask that you grant us 35 days from the date on which we return the acceptances of service to respond to your amended complaint, instead of the usual 20 days. Please let me know if you are agreeable to that, and if so, when we return the acceptance forms, we will calculate and indicate the date by which we will respond to the amended complaint so that there is no confusion about the matter between us. If you chose not to agree to this course of action, we will be forced to challenge your service on the Apollo Group and will request that the Court grant us the additional time we seek to respond to the complaint. I have no doubt that the court would allow us the additional time, particularly in light of our proposal to you and our attempt to resolve the service matter without involving the court by agreeing to accept service.
We believe this approach is a fair approach that will avoid an early court fight about service and allow all of the defendants to respond to the complaint on the same date. Please let me know if you agree with our proposals. Lynne Adams Lynne C. Adams

Thank you for relaying the University of Phoenix and Apollo Group Inc. willingness to accept service of my first amended complaint after receipt from its statutory agent on 09/09. Inasmuch, I must reject the acceptance offer and look forward to your client's response according to court rules. See Affidavit of Service and Motion for Ruling in support. I provided your client's statutory agent summons complaints for both the University of Phoenix and
&
Apollo Group Inc. contrary to your assertions contained in 09/19 e-mail assertions at paragraph three entitled "University of Phoenix". I am not amendable to allowing said parties to accept service until the highest court decides the same was defective in view of all circumstances.
Consequently, I will charge your clients with misrepresentation if and when said Court decides service was defective . support .

Additionally, I am not disposed to allow your any additional days for response to the first complaint and particularly in view said received e-mail notice even before filed by the 07/28. Therefore, said clients should be able to within time provided under Court rules.

If the Court agrees with any argument advanced by your clients then an immediate claim of appeal and supporting brief will follow.

Defendants request an extension of time in which to respond to Plaintiffs First
17
Amended Complaint until the later of November 3, 2014 or 14 days after the Court
18
resolves Plaintifts Motion for Remand, assuming that the case is not transferred back to
19
Maricopa County Superior Court. The requested extension will not only allow
20
Defendants time to adequately respond to Plaintiffs 54-page complaint, but also will
21
allow the parties to fiilly brief and the Court to decide the pending Motion to Remand
22
and the jurisdictional issues raised by that Motion.
23 24 25 26 27
Relevant Case Background. On July 28, 2014, Plaintiff filed his initial Complaint in Maricopa County Superior Court. Plaintiff did not serve the initial Complaint on any Defendants, nor did he request a waiver or acceptance of service for that version of the Complaint. On September 8, Plaintiff filed his First Amended Complaint in Superior Court, and undersigned counsel accepted service of the First

1
Amended Complaint on September 29, 2014 for all defendants except "Francis" and
2
"Unknown Employee."
3
On October 3, 2014, the Defendants removed this case from Arizona State Court
4
to this Court. On October 8, 2014, Plaintiff filed a Motion for Remand, challenging the
5
propriety of the removal, specifically whether it was timely. [Doc. 6] On October 9,
6
2014, Plaintiff emailed Defendants' counsel a copy of an Emergency Motion for
7
Hearing Regarding Remand of Arizona State Claims Against University Defendants
8
that he apparently intends to file with this Court.
9
Because the First Amended Complaint was served on September 29, 2014,
10
Defendants' response to the First Amended Complaint must be filed by October 20,
11
2014 pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 81(C)(2). That is also the date on which Defendants'
12
response to the Motion for Remand is due.
13
plaintifrs Opposition to Extension. In light of the pending challenge to this
14
Court's jurisdiction over this matter, and in light of the fact that the First Amended
15
Complaint is 54 pages long, on October 8, 2014, Defendants' counsel requested that
16
Plaintiff grant them a short extension to respond to the First Amended Complaint.
17
Plaintiff declined to grant the request. After receiving notice of the Motion to Remand,
18
Defendants' counsel renewed and revised their request to Plaintiff, asking for an
19
extension until the later of November 3, 2014 or until 14 days following this Court's
20
decision on the pending Motion for Remand. Plaintiff also declined to grant that
21
request, and instead indicated his intent to file the Emergency Motion. In that Motion,
22
Plaintiff reiterates his opposition to providing Defendants with additional time to
23
respond to the First Amended Complaint. Plaintiff has also indicated that he plans to
24
move for a default judgment against Defendants.
25
Accordingly, Defendants seek an order extending their time to respond to the
26
First Amended Complaint until the later of November 3, 2013 or 14 days from the
27
Court's resolution of the Motion for Remand, assuming that the case is not transferred
28
back to Maricopa County Superior Court.

Pending before this Court are: (1) Plaintiff's Motion for Ruling Re: Service of
16
Summons, (Doc. 22); (2) Motion for Leave to Appeal in forrna pauperis re: Notice of
17
Interlocutory Appeal (Doc. 24); (3) Motion for U.S. Marshal Service of Subpoena, (Doc.

19
Sufhciency of Service (Doc. 36); and (6) Plaintiffs Objection and Motion to Strike (Doc.
20
38). For the reasons stated below all of these motions are denied.
21
Defense "Counsel accepted service of the First Amended Complaint on September
22
29, 2014 for all Defendants except 'Francis' and 'Unknown employee"' (Doc. 7).
23
Defense counsel thereafter requested, and, on October 10, 2014, the Court granted an
24
extension of time for Defendants to respond to Plaintiff's First Amended Complaint
25
(Doc. 8). It was not until four days later that Plaintiff first sought an entry of default
26
judgment against some of the Defendants who acknowledged service and for whom the
27
Court had granted an extension of time to respond.

1
Plaintiff files most of the above motions trying to get the Court to reconsider its
2
denial of default or default judgment against these coiporate Defendants. Plaintifs
3
theory appears to be that he had already accomplished service on two of the corporate
4
Defendants and therefore, the Court's extension of time to respond was only effective as
5
to the individual Defendants who Plaintiff had not previously served. The Plaintiff
6
therefore attempts to get the Court to determine whether or not the corporate Defendants
7
had been previously served, prior to the time that they acknowledged acceptance of
8
service. The Court declines to do so. Whether or not they had been previously served
9
was not material to the Court's determination to grant all Defendants a limited extension
10
of time to respond. And, the Court granted the Defendants the extension before the
11
Plaintiff moved for default against two of the Defendants. As a result Plaintiffs Motion
12
for Ruling Re: Service of Summons, (Doc. 22), his Motion for Leave to Appeal in forma
13
pauperis re: Notice of Interlocutory Appeal (Doc. 24), his Motion for Relief fiom Order
14
(Doc. 30), his Motion for Hearing to Determine Sufficiency of Service (Doc. 36), and his
15
Objection and Motion to Strike (Doc. 38) all lack merit and are denied.
16
To the extent that the Plaintiff attempts to have the Marshal's service serve one of
17
the corporate Defendants with a subpoena, the Court notes that the corporate Defendant is
18
a party to this lawsuit. The appropriate way for the Plaintiff to obtain documents from
19
parties is pursuant to the discovery rules of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure Rules
20
26-35, and not through the issuance of a subpoena. The Court, therefore, also denies
21
Plaintiffs Motion for U.S. Marshal Service of Subpoena, (Doc. 28).
22
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED THAT:
23
1.
The Motion for Ruling re: Service of Summons and Complaint (Doc. 22) is
25
2.
The Motion for Leave to Appeal in Forma Pauperis (Doc. 24) is denied.

18
Wendell Dwayne O'Neal has filed for bankruptcy before the United States Bankruptcy Court,

20
U.S.C. § 362 now applies.
21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28
However, the Ninth Circuit Appellate Panel has indicated that the automatic stay does not bar Plaintiffs (or his bankruptcy trustee's) prosecution of this lawsuit. See, e.g., In re Way, 229 B.R. 11, 13 (9th Cir. B.A.P. 1998); In re Merrick, 175 B.R. 333, 336 (9th Cir. B.A.P. 1994). Further, Defendants have the right to defend themselves against a debtor's lawsuit after the bankruptcy filing. The Ninth Circuit has "clearly held that the automatic stay does not prohibit a defendant in an action brought by a plaintiff/debtor Rom defending itself in that action." See Way, 229 B.R. at 13, (citing In re White, 186 B.R. 700, 707 (9th Cir. B.A.P. 1995); Merrick, 175 B.R. at 336.).

(collectively "the University"). Joinder of those claims would therefore require this Court to overturn the Arizona Superior Court's ruling and resurrect the already dismissed claims, neither of which is within this Court's power to do. Moreover, even if this Court could somehow resurrect O'Neal's defiinct State
4 5 6 7
law claims, the resurrection would be fiitile as this Court lacks jurisdiction over the unrelated claim, and the claim is barred by res judicata and the one-year statute of limitations. Argument

O'Neal's Consumer Fraud Claims Have Been Dismissed with Prejudice and Appealed to the Arizona Court of Appeals.

There is no active lawsuit pending in Arizona Superior Court and, thus, no consumer fraud claim to join. All of O'Neal's claims against the University (and other University employee defendants), including his consumer fraud claim, were dismissed with prejudice in a final judgment on the merits. See Dkt #24 (University's Mot. to Dismiss) at Ex. 1 (Arizona Superior Court Minute Entry, dated 1/23/15, dismissing action with prejudice; Final Judgment of Dismissal with Prejudice, dated 3/3/15; Minute Entry, dated 3/17/15, denying motion for relief from judgment). Moreover, because O'Neal has appealed the Superior Court's order to the Arizona Court of Appeals, the Superior Court no longer has any jurisdiction over his defiinct claims. Given the posture of the State court litigation, O'Neal has essentially made the impossible request that this Court: (1) transfer his appeal from the Arizona Court of Appeals back to Arizona Superior Court, (2) instruct the Superior Court to vacate its judgment dismissing ONeal's claims with prejudice and then to reinstate O'Neal's Superior Court complaint, and (3) transfer a portion of that complaint to this Court. There is no way for this Court to do what O'Neal seeks. O'Neal is apparently belatedly attempting to forum shop, having decided that this Court is potentially more inclined to rule in his favor on his claims than was the Arizona Superior Court. But it was O'Neal who decided to file his claims in Arizona Superior

Court, and it was O'Neal who asked that the case be remanded back to the state court 1
after the University removed it to federal court. That the claims were decided in the 2
University's favor does not provide ONeal with any right to have them relitigated in 3 4
this Court Not only does this Court lack authority to directly reverse the Arizona Superior
5
Court's judgment, it cannot indirectly review that decision. As pointed out in the 6
University's reply in support of its Motion to Dismiss, 28 U.S.C. § 1257 and the 7
Rooker-Feldman doctrine prohibit this Court from acting as an appellate court for state 8
court judgments. See Rooker v. Fidelig Trust Co., 263 U.S. 413 (1923); Dist. of 9
Columbia Court ofAppea/s v. Feldman, 460 U.S. 462 (1983). The Rooker-Feldman 10
doctrine bars a party losing in state court from seeking what in substance would be 11
appellate review of the state judgment in a federal court, based on the losing party's 12
claim that the state court judgment itself violates the loser's federal rights. See Exxon 13
Mobil Corp. v. Saudi Basic Indus. Corp., 544 U.S. 280, 291-92 (2005). O'Neal's 14 15 16
attempt to do that fails for at least two reasons: ·
First, there is no federal basis to challenge the state court's decision,
which was based on state procedural grounds governing state law claims. 17
This is directly barred by 28 U.S.C. § 1257. 18 19
· Second, even if there were a federal law-based challenge to the Arizona State Court's decision, it would barred by Rooker-Feldman. See
20
Exxon Mobil Corp., 544 U.S. at 291-92. 21
Thus, the Court must decline O'Neal's request to join additional, previously22
adjudicated claims, because his request impermissibly attempts to obtain federal review
23 24
of the State Court's decision.

II.
The Joinder of Any Claims Would Be Futile Even If This Court Had the Necessary Authority to Resurrect and Transfer Them. Even if this Court did have the authority to resurrect O'Neal's state court claims
3
and review them, the joinder of the consumer fraud claim would be futile for three
4
reasons.
5
No BankruptcY Jurisdiction. This Court does not have jurisdiction over
6
O'Neal's State statutory consumer fraud claim as it does not arise in, arise under, or
7
relate to his bankruptcy. See 28 U.S.C. § 1334(b); In re Tucson Estates, 912 F.2d 1162,
8
1168 (9th Cir. 1990). As discussed in more detail in the University's Motion to
9
Dismiss, now that the Trustee has abandoned these claims, the resolution of these
10
claims could not conceivably have any impact on O'Neal's bankruptcy estate. See, e.g.,
11
In re Fietz, 852 F.2d 455, 457 (9th Cir. 1988); In re WorldFin. Servs. Ctr., Inc., 64 B.R.
12
980, 987-88 (Bank. S.D. Cal. 1986) (collecting cases).
13
Barred by Res Judicata. O'Neal's consumer fraud claims are barred by res
14 judicata. O'Neal admittedly seeks to join the very same consumer Kaud claim that he 15
brought in the Arizona Superior Court, which the Superior Court dismissed with
16
prejudice in a final judgment on the merits. See Dkt #24 at Ex. 1; see also Tahoe Sierra
17
Pres. Council, Inc. y. Tahoe RegionalPlanning, 322 F.3d 1064, 1077 (9th Cir. 2003)
18
(finding res judicata applies when there is "(1) an identity of claims, (2) a final
19
judgment on the merits, and (3) privity between parties"). Although O'Neal did not
20
assert the consumer fraud claim against the University, the University was a party to the
21
action and the consumer fraud claim was brought against one of its employees. ONeal
22
indisputably had the opportunity to assert this claim against the University in Superior
23
Court and, as a result, res judicata bars its litigation in this Court. See Federated Dep 't
24
Stores, Inc. v. Moitie, 452 U.S. 394, 398 (1981) (holding that res judicata precludes the
25
parties or their privies from relitigating issues that were or could have been raised in
26
that action); Tahoe-Sierra Pres. Council, 322 F.3d at 1078 ("Identity of claims exists
27
when two suits arise Hom the same transactional nucleus of facts.") (internal quotation
28
marks omitted).

Time-Barred. Finally, even if O'Neal could surmount these hurdles, his
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24
consumer fraud claim is fUrther barred by the statute of limitations. At the time O'Neal asserted this claim in Arizona Superior Court, it was already barred by Arizona's oneyear statute of limitations. A.R.S. § 12-541 (one-year limitations period for liability created by statute). O'Neal's complaint made clear on its face that he knew of the basis for the alleged consumer fraud by July 26, 2013, yet O'Neal did not file his claim until September 8, 2014. See Dkt #24, Ex. 6-l at pp. 2-43 (O'Neal's First Amended Complaint filed in Arizona Superior Court action, alleging consumer fiaud claim); Dkt #24, Ex. 6-2 at p. 44 & Ex. 6-3 at pp. 2-3 (email messages showing that by July 26, 2013 at the latest, O'Neal was aware of the issues related to his financial aid package for the 2012-13 academic year, which formed the basis of his consumer haud claim); Alaface v. Nat'llnv. Co., 181 Ariz. 586, 892 P.2d 1375 (App. 1994) (statutory consumer fraud action must be initiated within one year after the cause of action accrues). Any consumer fraud claim ONeal now seeks to assert against the University is likewise well after the July 26, 2014 deadline to bring suit and barred by the statute of limitations. III.
The Arizona Superior Court's Judgment Is Not "Void." O'Neal asserts that the Arizona Superior Court's dismissal of his claims with
prejudice is void because the Court lacked personal jurisdiction over the University, resulting from the University's purported failure to timely respond to O'Neal's complaint. Even if O'Neal's assertion was true, and it is not, a lack of personal jurisdiction over a party does not impact the validity of a final judgment. See Ariz. Tile, L.L.C. v. Berger, 223 Ariz. 491, 494, 224 P.3d 988, 991 (App. 2010) (recognizing personal jurisdiction was waived by failure to raise the affirmative defense and upholding enforceability of court's order). Moreover, as detailed in the University's Motion to Dismiss, O'Neal has argued
25 26 27
this service issue ad nauseam, and both the District Court and the Arizona Superior Court have ruled that the University timely responded to O'Neal's Complaint. In short, O'Neal did not properly serve his lawsuit when he personally delivered a copy of his

summons and complaint to a Tennessee statutory agent for one defendant, rather than having an independent party serve the Arizona statutory agent for both defendantsj See

P. 4.1 & 4.2 (only permitting out-of-state service on a corporation in limited circumstances). However, as the email messages that O'Neal has attached to his Motion for Joinder indicate, the University agreed to accept service, mooting the issue. Regardless, the propriety of service on the University and its subsequent acceptance of service have no impact on the finality of the Arizona Superior Court's judgment.
IV.
In Consequence of This Vexatious Litigation, the Court Should Award Attorneys' Fees and Stay Further Briefing. This Motion, along with ONeal's other filings both in this Court and in other
courts, indicate that he is a vexatious litigant under 28 U.S.C. § 1927. O'Neal has "multiplie{d] the proceedings in [this] case unreasonably and vexatiously," and he should therefore be required to pay the University's attorneys' fees and costs associated with responding to this Motion and to his Amended Complaint. 28 U.S.C. § 1927; Wages v. I.R.S., 915 F.2d 1230, 1235-36 (9th Cir. 1990) (requiring pro per litigant to pay fees and costs under 28 U.S.C. § 1927). Accordingly, the University requests that this Court award it the reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in connection with responding to this Motion. Moreover, if history is any indicator, O'Neal will continue to file motion after frivolous motion, forcing the University and this Court to engage in and consider voluminous and potentially unnecessary briefing. In light of the Court's "broad discretion to stay proceedings as an incident to its power to control its own docket,"
24 25 26 27 28
' The University's argument regarding service of process is included in more detail in the briefing from O'Neal's Arizona Superior Court case, which O'Neal has attached to his Motion for Joinder. Judge Snow's denial of O'Neal's service argument is also included in those exhibits. Judge Talamante also expressly rejected the service and personal jurisdiction arguments, which were raised before the entry of Final Judgment and again after it. See Dkt #24 at Ex. 1.

Clinton v. Jones, 520 U.S. 681, 706 (1997), the University requests that the Court enter 1
an order clarifying that the University need not respond to any of O'Neal's filings 2
regardless of when filed - until after the Court has ruled upon the pending Motion to 3 4
Dismiss. Conclusion
5
For all of these reasons, the University asks the Court to deny O'Neal's Motion 6
for Joinder in its entirety; award the University its attorneys' fees and costs in 7
responding to this frivolous motion, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1927; and enter an order 8
