PAPERLESS ORDER denying without prejudice #13 MOTION to Dismiss Plaintiff's Complaint, or in the Alternative, to Transfer Venue by META/Facebook. Pursuant to the #9 Magistrate Judge Direct Assignment Order, the parties are precluded from filing any motion without permission of the assigned judge until consent is obtained from all parties or the case is reassigned to a District Judge, if consent from all parties is not obtained. Because the time to file any preliminary motion is tolled until such time that consent is obtained from all parties or the case is reassigned to a District Judge, the Court's order denying Defendant's motion is without prejudice to the Defendant's right to renew the motion at the appropriate time.
