UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

RAYVEN JUSTICE,

Plaintiff,

v.

ICE KING ENTERPRISES LLC,

Defendant.

Case No. 14-cv-01767-WHO 

ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND 

RECOMMENDATION AND 

GRANTING IN PART AND DENYING 

IN PART PLAINTIFF’S MOTION FOR 

DEFAULT JUDGMENT; JUDGMENT

Re: Dkt. No. 35

This order concerns Judge Donna M. Ryu’s January 22, 2015 report and recommendation 

granting in part and denying in part plaintiff’s motion for default judgment. Dkt. No. 35. 

Plaintiff’s complaint asserts four causes of action against defendant: (i) copyright infringement; 

(ii) breach of contract; (iii) declaratory judgment; and (iv) violation of California’s Unfair 

Competition Law. Judge Ryu recommends denying default judgment on the fourth cause of action 

because plaintiff informed the Court at the hearing on the motion that he no longer seeks default 

judgment on his unfair competition claim. Id. at 7 n.3. No objections to the report and 

recommendation have been filed. 

Having reviewed the matter de novo, I ADOPT Judge Ryu’s report and recommendation in 

whole. For the reasons expressed therein, and with good cause appearing, plaintiff’s motion for 

default judgment on his copyright infringement, breach of contract, and declaratory judgment 

causes of action is GRANTED and it is ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND DECREED THAT:

1. Declaratory relief is entered as requested by plaintiff and the Court hereby 

declares that the recording agreement between plaintiff Rayven Justice and 

defendant Ice King Enterprises LLC d/b/a Ice King Music LLC entered on 

October 31, 2011 was effectively terminated on December 10, 2013.
