No. C 06-03468 SI

ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANT’S

MOTION FOR ENTRY OF JUDGMENT

Nominal defendant Openwave Systems, Inc., has filed a motion for entry of judgment. The

motion is scheduled for hearing on August 15, 2008. Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 7-1(b), the Court

finds this matter appropriate for resolution without oral argument, and hereby VACATES the hearing.

Defendant’s motion comes after the Court has twice dismissed plaintiffs’ complaints for failure

to plead demand futility. The Court granted plaintiffs leave to file a second amended complaint, but

plaintiffs chose not to do so. Instead, plaintiffs chose to serve a demand on Openwave’s board of

directors. Defendant now asks the Court to enter final judgment in this case pursuant to Federal Rule

of Civil Procedure 58(a). Defendant’s motion is unopposed, and the Court agrees with defendant that

it is appropriate to enter final judgment because plaintiffs are now pursuing a demand and have declined

to proceed on a demand futility theory. If plaintiffs decide to proceed instead on a theory that the board

of directors wrongfully refused a demand, they may file an appropriate action at that time. For these

reasons, the Court hereby GRANTS defendant’s motion for entry of judgment. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: August 4, 2008
