O UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT CENTRAL DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL MINUTES - GENERAL Case No. CV 09-09374 AHM (AJWx) Title BRUCE LISKER v. CITY OF LOS ANGELES, et al. Present: The Honorable Date September 13, 2011 A. HOWARD MATZ, U.S. DISTRICT JUDGE Stephen Montes Not Reported Deputy Clerk Court Reporter / Recorder Attorneys NOT Present for Plaintiffs: Proceedings: Tape No. Attorneys NOT Present for Defendants: IN CHAMBERS (No Proceedings Held) The Court has looked at the issues and arguments that the parties addressed or made in their respective papers relating to Defendants’ Motion for Summary Judgment. (Dkt. No. 90.) Given what transpired at yesterday’s status conference and the high likelihood that some (perhaps many) of the parties’ contentions will also be addressed in their forthcoming motions in limine, and further given that it is likely that at least some of the rulings on those motions in limine will clarify the nature of this dispute and of any trial, it would be ill-advised for the Court to devote further efforts to ruling on the pending Motion for Summary Judgment. Accordingly, the Court DENIES without prejudice Defendants’ Motion for Summary Judgment.1 Defendants may renew that motion or file a different and presumably far more streamlined and focused motion sometime before trial, but after the motions in limine have been decided. : Initials of Preparer 1 SMO Dkt. No. 90. CV-90 (06/04) CIVIL MINUTES - GENERAL Page 1 of 1
