Consequently, the hearing on the Motion, which had been set for 9/28/2020, was vacated, with a written order to follow on the Motion. For the reasons stated in this Order, this Motion is DENIED.

| Jul 7, 2017 | 32 | (IN CHAMBERS) ORDER RE PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION (DKTS. 29[Eko], 30 [Solofill]) by Judge John A. Kronstadt. In June 2016, Adrian Rivera ("Rivera" or "Plaintiff") brought two separate actions for infringement of U.S. Patent Nos. 9,232,871 ("the '871 Patent") and 9,232,872 ("the '872 Patent"), (collectively, "Asserted Patents"). The first action was brought against Solofill LLC ("Solofill"); the second was brought against Eko Brands, LLC and Espresso Supply, Inc. (collectively, "Eko"). Solofill and Eko are referred to in this Order as "Defendants." Plaintiff brought separate motions (Dkt. 29 (Eko), 30 (Solofill) ("Motions")) seeking the entry of a preliminary injunction that would bar each of the Defendants from offering to sell, selling, or otherwise distributing their respective, accused products. Each of the Defendants filed separate oppositions. Dkt. 40 (Eko); Dkt. 49 (Solofill). Plaintiff filed separate replies. Dkt. 47 (Eko); Dkt. 58(Solofill). A hearing on the Motions was held on February 27, 2017, and they were taken under submission. Dkt. 93. For the reasons stated in this Order, the Motions are DENIED. Refer to the Court's order for details. (pso) (Entered: 07/07/2017) (0) |
| Jul 7, 2017 | 31 | (IN CHAMBERS) ORDER RE SUMMARY JUDGMENT by Judge John A. Kronstadt (32) (52). In June 2016, Adrian Rivera ("Plaintiff") brought separate actions against Solofill LLC; and Eko Brands, LLC and Espresso Supply, Inc. (collectively, "Defendants") for infringement of U.S. Patent Nos. 9,232,871 ("the '871 Patent") and 9,232,872 ("the '872 Patent"), (collectively, "Asserted Patents"). On November 21, 2016, Eko moved for summary judgment of noninfringement and invalidity of the Asserted Patents. Dkt. (32). On December 19, 2016, Solofill filed a parallel motion for summary judgment on the same issues. Dkt. (52). Because the arguments advanced with respect to the two motions ("Motions") overlap, both are addressed in this Order. For the reasons stated in this Order, the Motions are DENIED. Refer to the Court's order for details. (pso) (Entered: 07/07/2017) (0) |
