January 19, 2007: January 19th Hearing

We had a hearing before the Judge on January 19th, 2007. (Transcript) Two sets of issues were addressed:

• Katzer's motions re the Amended Complaint to dismiss for failure to state a claim on which relief can be granted, motion to dismiss for failure to join a necessary party, motion to strike, and motion for a more definite statement.
• Bob Jacobsen's motion for preliminary injunction to prevent further copyright violations

The day before, the Court provided a Notice of Tentative Ruling and Questions, which provides some background for what was going to happen.

The Judge quizzed both sides about the questions he'd previously provided. He then took the case under submission, which means he'll give his decision in a written ruling at a later date.

After that, there was a discussion of the scheduling of the next steps in the case, called a Case Management Conference. If you're interested in those details, there's some additional information in the docket, including the proposed CMC, and other documents.
