(“Zynga”) hereby moves the Court pursuant to Civil 3 Local Rules 6-3 and 7-11 for an order continuing or striking the Case Management Conference 4 currently scheduled for April 30, 2010. This motion is based on the Motion, the declaration of 5 Christopher Varas, the [Proposed] Order, all pleadings on file in this action, and any other matter 6 that may be submitted in support of the motion. 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 ISSUE TO BE DECIDED Whether the Case Management Conference currently scheduled for April 30, 2010 shall be continued or stricken. MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES I. INTRODUCTION Plaintiff Zynga Game Network Inc. (“Zynga”) respectfully requests that the Court continue or strike the Case Management Conference currently scheduled for Apri30, 2010. II. FACTS The Court originally scheduled the Case Management Conference for November 20, 2009. 16 (Dkt. No. 9.) On October 29, 2009, the Court continued the Case Management Conference until 17 April 30, 2010. (Dkt. No. 24.) On March 4, 2010, the Court authorized Zynga to serve the 18 defendants in the case by electronic mail. (Dkt. No. 33.) Zynga served the defendants with process 19 on March 22, 2010. (Dkt. No. 37.) Neither of the defendants answered Zynga’s complaint within 20 the time required by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and neither has answered the complaint to 21 this day. Zynga’s request for entry of default against the defendants was filed on April 16, 2010 and 22 is currently pending before the Court. (Dkt. No. 38.) 23 24 III. ARGUMENT There is good cause to continue or strike the Case Management Conference in this case. 25 Because the defendants have not participated in the litigation, Zynga has been unable to conduct the 26 conference required by Federal Rule of Civil Procedure (“Federal Rule”) 26(f)(1). (Declaration of 27 -1- 28 CASE NO. CV-09:3264 SC MOTION TO CONTINUE OR STRIKE CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE 1 Christopher Varas in Support of Zynga’s Motion to Continue or Strike Case Management 2 Conference (“Varas Decl.”), ¶ 2.) Accordingly, Zynga is unable to file the joint case management 3 statement required by Federal Rule 26(f)(2) and Civil Local Rule 16-9. Id. Accordingly, it is 4 impractical for the Case Management Conference to proceed as scheduled on April 30, 2010. 5 Moreover, it is highly unlikely that the Case Management Conference will be held at all. 6 Defendants are located overseas and have not participated in this litigation in any way since being 7 served with process. (Varas Decl., ¶ 3.) Once the Court has entered the defendants’ default, Zynga 8 intends to file a motion for default judgment against them. (Id., ¶ 4.) Accordingly, there is good 9 cause for the Court to: 1) continue the Case Management Conference to a date far enough in the 10 future for default proceedings to be completed; or 2) strike the Case Management Conference from 11 the Court’s calendar. In the event the Court continues the Case Management Conference, Zynga 12 respectfully proposes that the conference be continued until July 9, 2010, or another date that is 13 convenient for the Court. 14 IV. CONCLUSION 15 For the foregoing reasons, Zynga respectfully requests that the Court issue an order 16 continuing or striking the Case Management Conference. A proposed order is submitted herewith. 17 Zynga is prepared to any additional information the Court may request regarding this Motion. 18 19 20 Dated: April 22, 2010 By: /ctv/ Christopher T.
