| Hearing Date: | March 7, 2023 | |
| Hearing Time: 8:30 a.m. [TENTATIVE] ORDER RE: DEFENDANT AND CROSS-COMPLAINANT NOWHERE SILVER LAKE, LLC dba EREWHON’S MOTION FOR PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION | ||
| AND RELATED CROSS-ACTION | | |
The motion for preliminary injunction brought by Defendant and Cross-Complainant Nowhere Silver Lake, LLC dba Erewhon (“Erewhon”) is continued as set forth below.
The parties have interposed more than 60 evidentiary objections. Due to the voluminous number of objections, the hearing on the motion will be continued to a date that will be set at the Hearing on Objections discussed below.
The Court orders the parties to meet and confer by telephone or in person in a serious and good faith effort to resolve and eliminate the objections. The only objections that should remain are those that pertain to material evidence regarding material issues. Keeping the rules of evidence in mind, the parties should be able to reduce the objections to just a few. If any material objections remain unresolved, the parties are to set them forth in a joint statement with the text, the objection, and the argument of each side in favor of their respective positions regarding the remaining material objections, along with a space for a ruling.
The joint statement must be filed on or before _______ with a courtesy copy delivered to Department 50. The Court will review any remaining objections with the parties at a hearing on _______________ at 2:00 p.m. (the “Hearing on Objections”). The date for the hearing on the motion will be set at the Hearing on Objections.
If necessary, based upon the resolutions reached during the meet and confer process and/or at the Hearing on Objections, the parties may respectively file and serve revised briefing and evidence. The revised evidence may eliminate objectionable material; however, no new evidence or new argument is to be submitted unless it is as a result of compromises reached during the meet and confer process. In the event that revised briefing and evidence is necessary, the Court will discuss with the parties a briefing schedule for the revised briefing at the Hearing on Objections.
Erewhon is ordered to give notice of this Order.
