IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

REARDEN LLC,

 Plaintiff,

 v.

REARDEN COMMERCE INC,

Defendant. /

No. C06-07367 MJJ

ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFF’S

MOTION FOR PRELIMINARY

INJUNCTION

Before the Court is Plaintiff’s Motion for Preliminary Injunction.1

 Plaintiff seeks to

preliminarily enjoin Defendant’s use of website domain names containing “reardenllc.” Defendant

opposes the motion by arguing that the issue is moot, but does not otherwise oppose the injunction. 

The Court finds that the issue is not moot because Defendant has not irrefutably demonstrated that it

has ceased the conduct in question. See Covenant Media of Cal., L.L.C. v. City of Huntington Park,

Cal., 377 F.Supp. 2d 828, 834 (C.D. Cal. 2005). Plaintiff, unopposed on the merits, has met its

burden for a preliminary injunction.2

 The Court, therefore, GRANTS the Motion and VACATES

the hearing set for September 18, 2007.

The Court ORDERS that Defendant Rearden Commerce, its officers, directors, agents,

servants, employees and attorneys, are preliminarily enjoined from:
