ORDER

LAWRENCE K. KARLTON, Senior District Judge.

Plaintiffs are alleged to be homebuyers who have brought suit against defendants on the basis of the latter’s purportedly unlawful compensation arrangement. On April 28, 2009, the court granted defendant’s motion to strike the class allegations from the complaint, holding that the class action waiver contained in the plaintiffs’ valid arbitration agreements was enforceable and barred the plaintiffs from proceeding as a class. It is this order that plaintiffs request the court to certify for interlocutory appeal.
