Defendants.

1:15-cv-0592-AWI-SAB

ORDER DENYING REQUEST TO 

RESCHEDULE HEARING TO 

ALLOW FOR ORAL ARGUMENT ON 

PLAINTIFF’S MOTION FOR 

PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION

(Doc. #36)

Plaintiff TGI FRIDAY’S Inc. (“Plaintiff”) previously filed a motion for preliminary 

injunction based on a Lanham Act claim for unauthorized use of trademarks by Stripes 

Restaurants, Inc., John Pardini, and Robert Pardini (collectively “Defendants”). On May 27, 

2015, the court issued a minute order vacating this motion’s hearing previously scheduled for 

June 1, 2015 and submitting the matter for decision on the papers pursuant to Local Rule 230(g). 

Defendants immediately filed a request to reschedule the hearing to allow for oral arguments on 

the motion for preliminary injunction to its previously scheduled date and time, June 1, 2015, at 

1:30 p.m., at the Robert E. Coyle United States Courthouse, 2500 Tulare St., Eighth Floor, 

Courtroom 2, Fresno, CA 93721. Under Local Rule 230(g), the court may do so in its discretion. 

The court, however, finds that the matter has been adequately presented on the papers and that it 

would not be further aided by oral arguments. Defendants’ request to reschedule the hearing to 

allow for oral arguments is denied.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: May 28, 2015
