ORDER Re: DEFENDANTS' MOTION TO DISMISS 8 by Judge Ronald S.W. Lew. This Court therefore GRANTS Defendant's Motion to Dismiss Plaintiffs second claim for right of publicity and third claim for common law appropriation of likeness on the grounds that these claims are subject to First Amendment protection as expressive works. These two claims are DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE because they cannot be cured by stating additional facts. Because, for the purpose of a 12(b)(6) motion, the Court must accept all allegations in the complaint as true, the Court DENIES Defendants Motion to Dismiss on all other grounds, but notes that these grounds may be ripe for decision in later motions.
