August 29, 2024 Filing 14 Minute Entry for proceedings held before Magistrate Judge Lisa J. Cisneros: #1 Motion to Compel Hearing held on 8/29/2024. Total Time in Court: 1 hour and 22 minutes. Court Reporter: Recorded via Liberty: 2:08 p.m.- 3:30 p.m. For Movant: Rebecca Horton, Hogan Lovells US LLP, counsel for Empower Annuity Insurance Company of America. For Respondent: Kate Lazarus, Kwun Bhansali Lazarus LLP, counsel for Icon Ventures.Results: The Court ordered Empower Annuity to provide a supplemental filing by September 5, 2024 modeled on Court's order in Empower Annuity Insurance Company of America v. Sequoia Capital Operations, LLC, No. 24-mc-80061-LJC, ECF No. 37. Specifically, Empower Annuity shall file a declaration and evidence, such as excerpts of deposition testimony and documents produced by Empower Financial, Inc. (EFI) in the underlying litigation in Colorado to support Empower Annuity's contention that Initialized Capital Management, LLC (Initialized) was involved in EFI's branding process or engaged with EFI in a manner such that there will be discovery that is responsive to the claims or defenses in that case. The Court will review the supplemental filing, and make a threshold determination regarding whether third party discovery as to Initialized is permissible. If the Court determines that it is, then the Court will issue an order that resolves the remaining disputed search terms. To the extent that the parties reached an agreement as to certain search terms at the hearing on the motion to compel, Initialized is not required to produce that third party discovery until the Court reviews Empower Annuity's supplemental filing and decides the threshold issue.
