| Filing 2 AMENDED complaint by Zinkia Entertainment against The Partnerships and Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A (Attachments: #1 Schedule A, #2 Exhibit 1 thru 5)(Vogt, Keith) |
Filing 1
ORDER: On 1/25/2023, the court granted plaintiff's motion to sever defendants 70 to the extent that the court intended to sever the defendants that filed 69 (the "DGMTY defendants") into a separate case. 72 . But before severing these defendants, the court gave the parties an opportunity to conclude their negotiations. The court has now reviewed the parties' status reports ( 73 , 74 ), which state that settlement discussions have not concluded and that the parties do not oppose the severance of the DGMTY defendants or a referral to the magistrate judge for settlement conference. Accordingly, the court severs plaintiff's claims against the DGMTY defendants (DGMTY, Ding, Fuyu, HPQ, Lucakuins, Qingtian Yingying Electronic Commerce Co., Ltd., Shanghai Leiyuan Energy Technology Co., Ltd., Shenzhen Dali Industry Co., Ltd., Shenzhen Linglangxi Network Technology Co., Ltd., Shenzhen Rongxiner Network Technology Co., Ltd., Shenzhen Weitian Industrial Co., Ltd., Soothfeel, Store shopping, XiaMen Shi AiDeMan XinXiKeJi YouXian GongSi, Xingqing, chengdulijingyaxiumaoyiyouxiangongsi, minggong, shenzhenshiqinglisongdianzishangwuyouxiangongsi, shenzhenshishangpinyuandianzishangwuyouxiangongsi, shenzhenshiyishengyangdianzishangwuyouxiangongsi, sigeshangmao, tianjinhefengwangluokejiyouxiangongsi, tianjinshidongfangsugouwangluokejiyouxiangongsi, xuhua, and yishu). The court requests that the Clerk of Court open a single separate lawsuit for plaintiff against all defendants in this group of defendants (the DGMTY defendants), assign a new case number to that case, and assign that case to this judge as related to this case (22-cv-04973). Once the DGMTY defendants are severed into a separate case, plaintiff will pay the filing fee, file an amended complaint in the new case (involving the DGMTY defendants only), and then the court will refer that case to the assigned magistrate judge for discovery and settlement. Signed by the Honorable Martha M. Pacold on 2/8/2023. Mailed notice (rp, )
