October 26, 2017 Opinion or Order Filing 60 ORDER denying #58 Motion to Continue Prejudgment Hearing. Defendants have not provided the Court with any legal authority supporting its arguments and thus fail to satisfy the standard required by D. Conn. L. R. 7(a). This Court's Prejudgment Hearing was scheduled prior to the Supreme Court of New Jersey's remand and defense counsel was aware of this matter, and therefore this reason for a continuance is unpersuasive. The purpose of a prejudgment remedy hearing is to evaluate a "plaintiff's probable success at trial on the merits" and may be conducted prior to the closure of discovery, TES Franchising, LLC v. Feldman, 286 Conn. 132, 143 (2008), and before motions to dismiss are ruled on see First Equity Grp., Inc. v. Culver No. 3:08-cv-1893-VLB, 2009 WL 353490 (D. Conn. Feb. 11, 2009).
