Does the pendency of a federal action brought by a state against a federal defendant have any bearing in determining whether the federal action is pending?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Valerio v. Boise Cascade Corp., 177 Cal.App.3d 1212, 223 Cal.Rptr. 592 (Cal. App. 1986):

The instant case, of course, is easily distinguishable from Deas v. Knapp, in that in the case at hand the pendency of the federal action did not have any bearing on the state action; they were identical actions not dependent on one another.
