ORDER denying #165 Motion for Attorney Fees. There is no way that Close-Up's position can be viewed as objectively unreasonable. As the Court made clear in its Findings and Conclusions, it was only a matter of perspective as to whether the parties' separate licenses covered different products, as defendants contended, or whether defendants' licensed products, as defendants marketed them (i.e., without a "no turn-off switch"), were in fact a subset of Close-Up's licensed products. Although the Court found defendants' perspective to be the more reasonable, based in large part on the manner in which the parties described the licenses in their license agreements, that does not mean that Close-Up's perspective was unreasonable. Ordered by Judge Brian M. Cogan on 3/18/2011. (Cogan, Brian)

ORDER re #146 Letter filed by Close-Up International, Inc. The Court does not need proposed findings and conclusions. Ordered by Judge Brian M. Cogan on 1/19/2011. (Cogan, Brian)
|
| Filing 145 Letter requesting clarification of disclosure order entered during trial by Image Entertainment, Inc. (Attachments: #1 Appendix Excerpts of trial transcript, #2 Appendix Demand for documents by Close-Up, #3 Appendix Copies of prior email correspondence, #4 Appendix Copy of prior transmittal letter) (Beall, Christopher) |
|
ORDER re #145 Letter, filed by Image Entertainment, Inc. The position stated in Image's letter conforms precisely to what the Court intended it to produce, and which is clearly reflected in the transcript -- Close-Up gets ONLY the underlying Excel spreadsheet showing data from Images working Oracle database, NOT physical records. Even at that, Close-Up should consider itself fortunate as it never raised a challenge to what it now contends was an inadequate discovery response until near the end of trial. Ordered by Judge Brian M. Cogan on 1/15/2011. (Cogan, Brian)
|
|
ORDER. The Court has reviewed the record in light of Close-Up's proffered exhibit 121 and has determined that the further proceedings discussed at the end of trial regarding Mr. Cho's deposition are unnecessary and are therefore canceled. The exhibit, at most, advances the "notice" date by a little over three weeks, during which time Image was attempting to get a handle on the situation. The Court's preliminary view is that this is not materially different than the testimony and will not affect the outcome of the case. Close-Up may attempt to convince the Court otherwise in its post-trial briefs. The exhibit is received, the record is closed, all defendants are deemed to have moved for judgment as a matter of law, which motions are denied. Post-trial briefs due by 1/27/11; reply briefs 2/3/11. Ordered by Judge Brian M. Cogan on 1/13/2011. (Cogan, Brian)

| Filing 142 Letter Reply to Ruscico Defendants Motion to Sever Inquest by Close-Up International, Inc. (Lowenfeld, Julian) |
| Filing 141 Letter in opposition to Close-Up request for including inquest against Joseph Berov at trial by Deandown Ltd. (Berkovich, Alexander) |
|
ORDER. The "motion to sever" the damage portion of the case as to Berov, to the extent there is any such motion, is denied. The Court notes that there is no such motion on the docket and that is apparently because Mr. Richards, the attorney who has filed a letter requesting a severance, has not appeared in this action in any capacity, including as counsel to Berov, and thus the motion was not filed on ECF, as is required. Even if Mr. Richards had appeared as counsel to Berov (a role which, according to various flings on the docket, he has expressly declined to accept), the motion would be denied as untimely; it was faxed to Chambers on late Friday or Saturday before the commencement of trial on Monday in a case that had been long set. Severance would be prejudicial to Close-Up which has prepared its case on the assumption, supported by the docket, that Berov would be a party. Mr. Berkovich's claim that Judge Trager had already determined to sever Berov is contradicted by the docket, which contains no such order, as well as by Mr. Richards' letter, which obviously assumes that Berov has not been severed. Mr. Berkovich is cautioned that this Court will not hesitate to sanction any lawyer that distorts the record and engages in vexatious litigation designed to take advantage of the reassignment of this case due to Judge Trager's death. If Mr. Richards wants to appear for Berov at the inquest, he should show up Monday morning, and if Berov wants to testify or appear, the Court will enter a writ of habeas corpus ad testificandum so he can do so, although the Court will not adjourn the trial for the amount of time necessary to secure his appearance, as no request to produce him has been made to date. Ordered by Judge Brian M. Cogan on 1/8/2011. (Cogan, Brian)

Filing 71
ORDER. On July 27, 2009, defendant, counter-claimant and third-party plaintiff Close-Up International Inc. ("plaintiff") filed a letter requesting an order that would permit plaintiff to serve Widnes Enterprises, Ltd. ("Widnes") with the complaint by: (1) mailing the complaint to Widnes' registered address in Cyprus using an international courier; and (2) sending a copy of the complaint to Joel Bomhart ("Bomhart"). As Bomhart has represented that he is not Widnes' attorney and does not know if he would be Widnes' attorney if Widnes were to be served with the complaint, plaintiff's request is denied. Within seven (7) days of the date of this order, plaintiff shall file a letter explaining how plaintiff proposes to serve Widnes. The method of service proposed by plaintiff shall treat Widnes as an unrelated party with no ties to the litigation or to any of the other defendants. In the letter, plaintiff shall cite to authority showing that plaintiff's proposed method of service is authorized under the relevant law. Ordered by Senior Judge David G. Trager on 7/31/2009.
