Date Filed Document Text
June 18, 2021 Filing 32 RESPONSE in Opposition re #27 MOTION TO DISMISS #1 Complaint, FOR FAILURE TO STATE A CLAIM filed by Celsius Holdings, Inc.. Replies due by 6/25/2021. (Rothman, Joel)
June 11, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 31 PAPERLESS ORDER granting #30 Plaintiff's Consent Motion for Extension of Time. The deadline for Plaintiff to respond to Defendants' Motion to Dismiss is June 11, 2021. (DE #27 ). Plaintiff seeks a 7-day extension, citing only that counsel "requires an additional seven (7) days in which to adequately respond." (DE #30 at 1). Motions to extend litigation deadlines must set forth good cause supported by specific facts. Plaintiff's Motion does not provide the Court with any basis upon which to evaluate whether good cause exists to grant the requested relief. Nevertheless, I will grant the Motion because the extension is brief and unopposed. Accordingly, the deadline for Plaintiff to respond to Defendants' Motion to Dismiss (DE #27 ) is extended to June 18, 2021. I note that Plaintiff's Motion indicates that Defendants do not oppose the requested extension "assuming a commensurate extension of the reply deadline." (DE #30 at 2). Any reply must be filed within 7 days after Plaintiff files its response to Defendants' Motion to Dismiss. To the extent that Defendants intend to seek an extension of that deadline, they must do so by a separate motion. Signed by Judge Donald M. Middlebrooks on 6/11/2021. (kal)

Defendant Keurig Dr Pepper Inc. seeks an extension until May 28, 2021, citing that "Defendants anticipate filing a combined response" but that the Court recently granted Defendant A Shoc Beverage, LLC, an extension until May 28, 2021. (DE #21 at 1). I find good cause to grant the Motion and extend the deadline for Defendant Keurig Dr Pepper Inc. to respond to the Complaint to May 28, 2021. No other litigation deadlines are modified or amended as a result of this Order. Signed by Judge Donald M. Middlebrooks on 5/13/2021. (apo)

May 10, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 19 PAPERLESS ORDER granting in part and denying without prejudice in part #14 the Motion for Extension of Time and Continuance of Trial filed by Defendant A Shoc Beverage, LLC ("A Shoc"). The deadline for A Shoc to respond to the Complaint is May 14, 2021. (DE #9 ). The trial in this matter is currently set for the two-week trial period commencing January 18, 2022. (DE #11 ). A Shoc seeks a 30-day extension of its response deadline and a continuance of trial, citing the perceived complexity of this case and the anticipated volume of discovery, and describing this case as being appropriate for disposition on a "Standard Track." (DE #14 ). Plaintiff does not oppose the Motion. (Id.). I find good cause to grant the Motion in part and extend the deadline for A Shoc to respond to the Complaint to May 28, 2021. However, A Shoc's request for a continuance of trial is premature and therefore denied without prejudice given that trial is currently scheduled eight months out. Further, A Shoc is advised that I do not generally adhere to the case management tracks set forth in the Local Rules. However, at any time, the Parties may consent to the jurisdiction of U.S. Magistrate Judge Dave Lee Brannon, who generally allows litigants great flexibility in setting the course and schedule, including the trial date, of their case. The consent form may be found on the Court's website. Signed by Judge Donald M. Middlebrooks on 5/10/2021. (kal)
