Background and Discussion

           

            This is a continuance. The court heard the Plaintiff’s motion to strike answer on March 23, 2023. It tentatively granted it and continued the hearing to this day. Defendant Robin Messier had stated that he has the funds to put Stem Cell Therapeutics LA LLC in good standing. (Minute Order, pg. 1.)  On the same day as the hearing, the court granted attorney Gary L. Eastman’s motions to be relieved as counsel for the seven defendants in this action.

 

As of April 21, 2023, Gary L. Eastman’s relieving from the case is effective. No substitution of attorney has been filed.

 

The Answer filed by Stem Cell Therapeutics LA LLC is stricken.  Default is entered against it.
