Order | Filed: May 16, 2024 | Entered: May 16, 2024 EpicentRx, Inc. v. Carter
Other Statutory Actions | California Southern
Minute Order (No Time) ~Util - Set Hearings
Minute Order by Judge Jinsook Ohta: On May 15, 2024, the Court held oral argument on EpicentRx, Inc.'s pending motion for attorney's fees (Dkt. 469 ). As discussed by the Court on the record, EpicentRx failed to comply with the Court's instructions to segregate the fees according to the categories instructed by Court and both parties failed to adequately meet and confer to identify the billing items that remain in dispute. The Court accordingly sets the following deadlines and warns the parties that failure to abide by the Court's instructions will result in waiver for the non-compliant party.
1. By May 23, 2024, EpicentRx shall provide to Carter a revised line-item accounting of the fees it requests, divided into to the following categories of (1) 100%, (2) 50%, (3) 15%, and (4) 5% of work related to EpicentRx's Wiretap Act claim.
2. By May 30, 2024, EpicentRx and Carter shall engage in an extensive and comprehensive good faith meet and confer. Carter will indicate the line-items he objects to and the reasons for the objection and EpiCentRx will respond with either an agreement to remove the item or an explanation of why it should remain included. The parties will attempt to reach consensus on each line-item in dispute.
3. By June 4, 2024, EpicentRx shall further revise its line-item accounting of the fees sought, removing any line-items where the parties have reached consensus that the work billed is not related to the Wiretap Act claim. For each line-item that remains in dispute after the good faith meet and confer described above, EpicentRx will prepare a document indicating which line-items remain in dispute, the reason for Carters initial objection, and EpicentRx's explanation of why it still contends the fees are appropriate. It will provide a copy of this document to Carter by June 4, 2024. For each disputed item, Carter will indicate if and why he continues to dispute the item and return the document to EpicentRx by June 7, 2024 so that EpicentRx can incorporate it into its updated briefing to the Court. The updated briefing shall be filed with the Court by June 10, 2024.
4. If after the meet and confer, EpicentRx still contends it is entitled to the 15% category, it will also submit deposition transcripts of these individuals for the Court's review. The deposition transcripts will highlight any portions of the depositions which EpicentRx contends was related to its Wiretap Act claim.
A failure by either party to comply with the Court's orders will result in a complete waiver by the non-compliant party. The hearing to address this final submission of revised billing and objections is CONTINUED to June 26, 2024 at 9:30 AM in Courtroom 4C before Judge Jinsook Ohta. Signed by Judge Jinsook Ohta on 5/16/2024. (kxh) -
