After dismissing all federal claims, a district court may decline supplemental jurisdiction over remaining state law claims when the relevant fairness and efficiency factors weigh against retaining them.

Rodriguez v. City of New York · filed 2008-02-27(c)(3)

Nor is the case at such a late stage that it would be unfair to the parties to decline to exercise supplemental jurisdiction at this point.
