NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

LOOP AI LABS INC,

Plaintiff,

v.

ANNA GATTI, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 15-cv-00798-HSG 

ORDER REGARDING EX PARTE

MOTION FOR TEMPORARY

RESTRAINING ORDER

Re: Dkt. No. 9

On March 3, 2015, Plaintiff Loop AI Labs, Inc. moved ex parte for entry of a temporary 

restraining order (“TRO”) and order to show cause regarding preliminary injunctive relief against 

the named Defendants in this action. See Dkt. No. 9.

On the record presented, the Court cannot conclude that the requirements of Federal Rule 

of Civil Procedure 65 are met so as to permit issuance of a TRO without notice. See Fed. R. Civ. 

P. 65(b)(1)(A) (court may issue temporary restraining order without notice to the adverse party 

only if “specific facts in an affidavit or a verified complaint clearly show that immediate and 

irreparable injury, loss, or damage will result to the movant before the adverse party can be heard 

in opposition.”). 

Plaintiff is directed to serve the documents submitted to the Court under Docket Numbers 

9, 10, 11 (the ex parte motion and supporting documents) and 12 (this order) on all named 

Defendants by no later than 5 p.m. PST on Thursday, March 5, 2015. Service of these documents 

may be effected on Defendants Almaviva S.p.A. and Almaware S.r.l. through the Italian Certified 

Electronic Mail system known as the “Posta Elettronica Certificate” or “PEC.” Plaintiff shall 

contact attorney Richard E. Levine – who represented on March 2, 2015 that he was authorized to 

accept service of the complaint on behalf of Defendant Gatti, see Dkt. No. 11-5 – to determine if 

he will accept service of the TRO papers and this order. Plaintiff is directed to immediately notify
