LOOP AI LABS INC,

Plaintiff,

v.

ANNA GATTI, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 15-cv-00798-HSG (DMR)

ORDER DENYING IQSYSTEM, INC'S 

EMERGENCY APPLICATION

Re: Dkt. No. 568

The court has received Defendant IQSystem, Inc.’s emergency application regarding this 

week’s deposition schedule and Plaintiff Loop AI Labs Inc.’s response thereto. [Docket Nos. 568, 

570.] IQSystem, Inc. apparently makes the application on behalf of counsel for Defendant Gatti. 

In the application, IQSystem, Inc. represents that counsel for Gatti is unavailable for depositions 

this week because he is on vacation and that his associate is also unavailable this week. It seeks 

the court’s permission to conduct the remaining depositions during the week of April 11, 2016. 

The parties have inundated the court with discovery disputes in February and March 2016 

leading up to the March 29, 2016 fact discovery deadline. In managing this deluge, the court has 

ordered the parties to conduct certain depositions during the days immediately following the 

March 29, 2016 deadline so as not to further delay the completion of fact discovery (see Docket 

No. 526). All of this activity put the parties on fair notice that the weeks surrounding the fact 

discovery cutoff would be crunch time. A quick review of the docket demonstrates that anyone 

who scheduled time off during this critical period did so at his or her peril. [See, e.g., Docket Nos. 

515, 516.] The court also notes that Gatti is represented by a firm that employs 17 lawyers, 

according to its website. IQSystem, Inc.’s application on behalf of Gatti is denied. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: April 5, 2016
