United States District Court

Northern District of California

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

W. KNIGHT FOSTER PARTNERSHIP,

Plaintiff,

v.

SARATOGA DATA SYSTEMS, INC.,

Defendant.

Case No. 16-cv-02406-PJH 

ORDER RE: REMANDED CASE

Re: Dkt. No. 37

On June 13, 2016, defendant Saratoga Data Systems, Inc. (SDS) filed a “notice of 

removal” of this action to the bankruptcy court for the Northern District of California. Dkt. 

31. In light of the notice of removal, the court terminated plaintiff’s pending motions (Dkt. 

9, 10) and closed the case. On August 4, Judge Montali granted plaintiff’s motion to 

remand the case back to this court. Dkt. 37. 

As indicated by the Clerk, plaintiff’s request for entry of default (Dkt. 33) is 

DENIED. See Dkt. 36 (vacating entry of default). As this case was removed to 

bankruptcy court, there was no need for the defendant to respond to the complaint prior 

to July 1, 2016.

In light of the remand from bankruptcy court, it is hereby ORDERED that:

1) Defendant will have until August 31 to respond to the complaint, unless the 

parties agree to extend the deadline by stipulation. See Local Rule 6-1(a).

2) If plaintiff wishes the court to consider its motions for a preliminary injunction 

(Dkt. 10) and to file under seal (Dkt. 9), plaintiff will need to re-notice the motion in 

accordance with the court’s 35-day briefing schedule. See Local Rule 7.
