MINUTE entry before the Honorable Thomas M. Durkin: Spin Master has filed a motion for summary judgment and a motion to stay discovery. Discovery in this case does not close until 4/20/2025, which is a date Spin Master jointly proposed with Defendant. Spin Master filed its motion for summary judgment before Defendant served any discovery. Defendant responded to the summary judgment motion arguing that it should be able to seek discovery about: (1) the likelihood of confusion, relevant to the trademark claim; (2) fair use, relevant to the copyright claim; (3) the issue of willfulness; and (4) the extent of damages. After responding to the summary judgment motion, Defendant served discovery, which prompted Spin Master's motion to stay. Spin Master, of course, argues that the discovery sought by Defendant is unnecessary, and points out that Defendant maintains that it can defeat summary judgment even without discovery. If Defendant had made that argument after the close of discovery, it might be sufficient reason to deny further discovery. But Defendant has the right to rely on the scheduling order and seek discovery that might strengthen its opposition to summary judgment. Therefore, the motion to stay is denied [105], and the motion for summary judgment [83] is denied without prejudice as premature. Prior to filing another motion for summary judgment, Spin Master should review the Court's procedures for seeking summary judgment, particularly the Court's custom to hold an off-the-record conference with counsel prior to the filing of any motion. The hearing set for 12/20/2024 stands. Mailed notice.

MOTION by Plaintiffs Spin Master Ltd., Spin Master, Inc. for reconsideration regarding order on motion for summary judgment, order on motion to stay, text entry, [111]

Exhibit

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Thomas M. Durkin: Spin Master's motion to reconsider [112] is denied. The Court did not deny the summary judgment motion because Spin Master failed to request an off-the-record conference. The Court's reference to its custom to hold an off-the-record conference was simply a notice that such a conference would now be required even though it wasn't when Spin Master inquired in July. And the case history Spin Master recounts in its motion does not change the fact that before Spin Master filed its summary judgment motion on 9/12/2024, it filed a proposed discovery schedule on 7/31/2024 providing that discovery would be open until 4/20/2025. Mailed notice.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Thomas M. Durkin: Telephone status hearing held on 12/20/2024. The 4/20/2025 discovery cut-off stands. A telephone status hearing is set for 4/30/2025 at 9:00 a.m. To join the telephone conference, dial (650) 479-3207, Access Code 180 815 7648. Throughout the hearing, each speaker will be expected to identify themselves for the record before speaking. Counsel must be in a quiet area while on the line. Please be sure to keep your phone on mute when you are not speaking. Persons granted remote access to proceedings are reminded of the general prohibition against photographing, recording, and rebroadcasting of court proceedings. Violation of these prohibitions may result in sanctions, including removal of court issued media credentials, restricted entry to future hearings, denial of entry to future hearings, or any other sanctions deemed necessary by the Court. Mailed notice.

ANNUAL REMINDER: Pursuant to Local Rule 3.2 (Notification of Affiliates), any nongovernmental party, other than an individual or sole proprietorship, must file a statement identifying all its affiliates known to the party after diligent review or, if the party has identified no affiliates, then a statement reflecting that fact must be filed.

The statement is to be electronically filed as a PDF in conjunction with entering the affiliates in CM/ECF as prompted. As a reminder to counsel, parties must supplement their statements of affiliates within thirty (30) days of any change in the information previously reported. This minute order is being issued to all counsel of record to remind counsel of their obligation to provide updated information as to additional affiliates if such updating is necessary.
