UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

IN RE: LITHIUM ION BATTERIES 

ANTITRUST LITIGATION Case No.: 13-MD-2420 YGR

ORDER DENYING AS PREMATURE 

DEFENDANT MAXWELL CORPORATION OF 

AMERICA’S REQUEST FOR A SUMMARY 

JUDGMENT PRE-FILING CONFERENCE

 

Re: Dkt. No. 939 

This Order Relates to: 

 

All Direct and Indirect Purchaser 

Actions

Defendant Maxwell Corporation of America (“MCA”) filed a request for a pre-filing 

conference, seeking to file an early motion for summary judgment on November 18, 2015. (Dkt. 

No. 939.) Plaintiffs filed a letter opposing the request. (Dkt. No. 947-3.) The Court finds that a 

pre-filing conference and early summary judgment motion is inappropriate at this juncture, prior to 

the close of fact discovery, on the grounds raised in MCA’s letter. Thus, the request is DENIED 

WITHOUT PREJUDICE as premature. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: November 16, 2015 _______________________________________
