Hearing on TRO in SCEA (Sony) v. Hotz Tomorrow at 10 AM - At Hotz's Request

By Pamela Jones et al.

This is last-minute-y, but there's going to be oral argument tomorrow morning at 10 AM in Sony Computer Entertainment America v. Hotz regarding the temporary restraining order. It's at Hotz's request, by the way, because tomorrow is the day he's supposed to turn over his computers to Sony, and he'd like to have a chance to speak, to present to the judge his concerns. It seems there never was a hearing on the merits of the TRO, so tomorrow is his opportunity to explain why he feels it's too broad, at a minimum.

If you are having trouble keeping track of all the motions in this litigation, frankly so am I and so are the court clerks, and the judge is getting annoyed. She's told the parties motions to shorten time must be "properly noticed" and if they want to shorten the time they must get an order first, and "stop immediately" confusing the clerks.
