December 20, 2023 Opinion or Order Minute Entry for proceedings held before Judge Kiyo A. Matsumoto: Pre-Motion Conference held on 12/20/2023. Appearances: Stacey Lara for Plaintiff; Christopher Gorman for Defendants 1078 Whillmore LLC and Samuel Fleischman.The Court held a pre-motion conference regarding Plaintiff's anticipated motion for appointment of a receiver, as well as Defendants' anticipated motion to dismiss. The Court discussed both proposed motions with the parties, and noted that a motion to dismiss would appear to be premature in the absence of additional documentary evidence. The Court ordered Plaintiff to produce the documents referenced in Defendants' #17 pre-motion conference letter by January 12, 2024, and advised the parties that the Court expected that such production would obviate the need for motion practice regarding the motion to dismiss. Defendants 1078 Whillmore LLC and Samuel Fleischman shall respond by January 19, 2024 by either (1) answering the complaint; or (2) serving their motion to dismiss on Plaintiff. Should Defendants choose to move to dismiss, they shall follow the same briefing schedule as the motion to appoint a receiver, detailed below, and their motion shall be considered alongside that motion. Following a discussion of the briefing schedule with the parties, the Court ordered the parties to serve and file their motions as follows: the moving party shall serve on all parties, but not file, their motion papers by January 19, 2024. The party opposing the motion shall serve, but not file, their opposition by February 5, 2024. On February 12, 2024, the moving party shall serve their reply, and the parties must (1) file the fully-briefed motions on ECF in logical order and (2) deliver TWO SETS of bound courtesy copies of ALL motion papers to the undersigned's Chambers via FedEx or messenger. The parties are reminded to review the undersigned's Chambers Practices and Local and Federal Rules of Civil Procedure regarding motions to ensure their full compliance. Finally, the Court noted the importance of counsel filing a notice of appearance prior to appearing before the court for a pre-motion conference. Plaintiff's counsel, who had not filed a notice of appearance at the time of the conference, shall file her notice of appearance no later than 5pm on the date of this order. Ordered by Judge Kiyo A. Matsumoto on 12/20/2023. (Court Reporter Rivka Teich.) (SP)
