DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO DISMISS AND MOTION TO STRIKE

WHEREAS, Plaintiff Santa Clara Valley Water District (“Plaintiff”) filed a 

complaint against Defendant Olin Corporation (“Defendant”) on July 27, 2007. (Docket No. 1) 

WHEREAS, Defendant filed an Administrative Motion to Consider Whether 

Cases Should be Related on July 30, 2007. (Docket No. 4) 

WHEREAS, Defendant filed a Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff’s Fifth and Seventh 

Causes of Action (Docket No. 10), and a Motion to Strike (Docket No. 12) (collectively referred 

to herein as “Motions”) before the Honorable Judge Ware on August 13, 2007. 

WHEREAS, Defendant noticed the hearings on these Motions for September 17, 

2007 before the Honorable Judge Ware. 

WHEREAS, Judge Ware reset the hearings on Defendant’s Motions for 

November 5, 2007. (Docket No. 15) 

WHEREAS, this Court granted Defendant’s Administrative Motion to Consider 

Whether Cases Should be Related, and ordered that this matter be reassigned to the Honorable 

Judge Whyte on August 16, 2007. (Docket No. 17) 

WHEREAS, once this case was reassigned to the Honorable Judge Whyte, this 

Court then vacated all dates for hearing any noticed motions previously set and ordered the 

moving party to re-notice hearing dates for any such motions. (Docket No. 17) 

WHEREAS, on August 24, 2007, before the Defendant re-noticed hearing dates 

for the Motions, this Court entered on its own motion an order re-setting Defendant’s Motion to 

Dismiss for hearing on September 28, 2007 at 9:00 a.m., but did not indicate whether 

Defendant’s Motion to Strike would be heard at the same time. (Docket No. 19) 

WHEREAS, this Court also ordered that any papers relating to these motions be 

filed in accordance with the originally noticed date absent a court order setting a new briefing 

schedule. (Docket No. 19)
