Filing 6
ORDER: The standard for a temporary restraining order ("TRO") is "essentially identical" to the standard for a preliminary injunction. Chandler v. Williams, No. CV 08-962-ST, 2010 WL 3394675, at *1 (D. Or. Aug. 26, 2010) (citation omitted). A TRO is "an extraordinary remedy that may only be awarded upon a clear showing that the plaintiff is entitled to such relief." Winter v. Nat. Res. Def. Council, Inc., 555 U.S. 7, 24 (2008). A plaintiff seeking a TRO "must establish that he is likely to succeed on the merits, that he is likely to suffer irreparable harm in the absence of preliminary relief, that the balance of equities tips in his favor, and that an injunction is in the public interest." Am. Trucking Ass'ns Inc. v. City of L.A., 559 F.3d 1046, 1052 (9th Cir. 2009) (quoting Winter, 555 U.S. at 21). Plaintiff has not demonstrated a likelihood of irreparable harm absent a TRO. "Irreparable harm is traditionally defined as harm for which there is no adequate legal remedy, such as an award of damages." Arizona Dream Act Coal. v. Brewer, 757 F.3d 1053, 1068 (9th Cir. 2014). This case is about a pickup truck. Plaintiff alleges Defendant agreed to replace his defective truck under the lemon law but cannot lawfully charge him $4,689 in upgrade costs for the replacement truck he ordered from a dealership. Contrary to Plaintiff's assertion, however, there is nothing unique or irreplaceable about this particular truck to justify the extraordinary remedy of a TRO enjoining its sale. Plaintiff states he was able to procure the replacement truck by simply choosing his desired options and ordering it from a local dealership. There is no reason to believe that this process cannot be replicated if, for whatever reason, the replacement truck is sold to a third party. Defendant is, after all, in the business of making automobiles, including the replacement truck Plaintiff claims is so unique that its loss would be irreparable. And, by definition, a mass-produced vehicle with a manufacturer's suggested retail price is "reparable" through money damages. Accordingly, the Court DENIES Plaintiff's Motion for Temporary Restraining Order #2 . Ordered by Judge Marco A. Hernandez. (jp)
