| July 30, 2009 | 624 | MINUTES (IN CHAMBERS) Order Denying Ex Parte Application for an Order Permitting Registration of Judgment in Michigan by Judge Philip S. Gutierrez denying 619 Ex Parte Application: The Court finds that Plaintiffs have effectively rebutted Defendant s' initial showing under the second prong of the "good cause" analysis. Six thousand dollars can hardly be said to be substantial assets, particularly in light of the judgment of more than two million against Plaintiffs. Accordingly, "good cause" to register the judgment in Michigan has not been established. The application is DENIED. (see document for further details) (bm) |
