9 Plaintiff, ORDER DENYING DEFENDANT’S MOTION FOR LEAVE TO FILE 10 v. MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION OF SEPTEMBER 16, 2025 DISCOVERY 11 JERRY MOORE, ORDER 12 Defendant. Re: Dkt. 94

13 14 This case has been referred to the undersigned for all discovery matters. See Dkt. 61. Now 15 pending before the Court is Defendant Jerry Moore’s request for leave to file a motion for 16 reconsideration of this Court’s September 16, 2025 Order resolving discovery disputes between 17 the Parties, the first dispute concerning Plaintiff’s notice of deposition served on Mr. Moore, and 18 the second dispute concerning subpoenas for oral depositions and document production served on 19 two nonparties, Ian Donald and Tami Donald. [Dkt. 94]. For the following reasons, Mr. Moore’s 20 request for leave to file a motion for reconsideration is DENIED. 21 A party seeking reconsideration of an interlocutory court order must first seek leave to file 22 such a motion. Civil L.R. 7-9(a). The moving party must specifically show one of the following:

23 (1) That at the time of the motion for leave, a material difference in fact or law 24 exists from that which was presented to the Court before entry of the interlocutory order for which reconsideration is sought. The party also must 25 show that in the exercise of reasonable diligence the party applying for reconsideration did not know of such fact or law at the time of the interlocutory 26 order; or

27 (2) The emergence of new material facts or a change of law occurring after the 1 (3) A manifest failure by the Court to consider material facts or dispositive legal 2 arguments which were presented to the Court before such interlocutory order. 3 Civil L.R. 7-9(b). The moving party may not reargue any written or oral argument previously 4 asserted to the Court. Civil L.R. 7-9(c). “Unless otherwise ordered by the assigned Judge, no 5 response need be filed and no hearing will be held concerning a motion for leave to file a motion 6 for reconsideration.” Civil L.R. 7-9(d). 7 “Reconsideration is an ‘extraordinary remedy, to be used sparingly in the interests of 8 finality and conservation of judicial resources.’” Gamevice, Inc. v. Nintendo Co.,

1069, 1071 (N.D. Cal. 2023) (quoting Carroll v. Nakatani,

(9th Cir. 2003)). 10 “As such, it should not be granted ‘absent highly unusual circumstances.’”

(quoting Marlyn 11 Nutraceuticals, Inc. v. Mucos Pharma GmbH & Co.,

(9th Cir. 2009)). 12 Here, Defendant Moore asks the Court to reconsider its September 16, 2025 Order 13 resolving three discovery letter briefs, one of which concerned Plaintiff JFF’s notice of Mr. 14 Moore’s deposition in this matter, and two of which concerned subpoenas served by JFF on two 15 nonparties—Mr. Moore’s sister, Tami Donald, and her husband, Ian Donald. See Dkt. 93. As 16 explained in that September 16, 2025 Order, the Court denied Mr. Moore’s request to “quash” the 17 entirety of his deposition notice, because Mr. Moore’s argument concerning the timing of the 18 deposition notice was procedurally defective and unpersuasive, ordering instead that the 19 deposition notice be modified to require that the deposition take place in Dallas, Texas (the 20 location of Mr. Moore’s residence). In resolving the dispute as to his deposition notice, the Court 21 took into account (and expressly addressed) Mr. Moore’s arguments under Rule 45 in particular. 22 The Court further denied Mr. Moore’s request to quash the two Rule 45 subpoenas at issue, 23 because Mr. Moore failed to meet his burden to show why he had standing to move to quash those 24 subpoenas issued to third parties. 25 Mr. Moore now seeks reconsideration of the Court’s September 16, 2025 Order, arguing 26 that the Court’s Order “overlooked or failed to address several material arguments previously 27 raised.” [Dkt. 94 at 2]. Mr. Moore expressly concedes that all of the issues that the Court 1 Having reviewed Mr. Moore’s submission, the Court concludes that he has not set forth 2 adequate grounds for leave to file a motion for reconsideration. Mr. Moore has not demonstrated 3 the emergence of new material facts or a change in law occurring in the one day since the time of 4 the Court’s September 16, 2025 Order, nor has he shown that there is a material difference in fact 5 or law from that which was previously presented to the Court. See Civil L.R. 7-9(b)(1)-(2). 6 Further, Mr. Moore has not offered any evidence of “manifest failure by the Court to consider 7 material facts or dispositive legal arguments which were presented to the Court before such 8 interlocutory order.” Civil L.R. 7-9(b)(3). 9 In urging the Court to reconsider its September 16, 2025 Order, Mr. Moore merely 10 rehashes identical arguments that he previously raised in the Parties’ letter briefing on the 11 underlying discovery disputes. In the motion seeking leave, Mr. Moore lists five issues which he 12 contends the Court either “overlooked” or “failed to address.” Two of those issues relate to Mr. 13 Moore’s arguments under Rule 45, which the Court explicitly addressed in the September 16, 14 2025 Order. Two of the allegedly “overlooked” issues relate to arguments regarding confidential, 15 financial, or business information, which again, the Court explicitly addressed in the September 16 16, 2025 Order. The final allegedly “overlooked” issue relates to the timing of Mr. Moore’s 17 deposition notice and the meet and confers relating to scheduling that deposition—and again, the 18 Court expressly addressed that issue in the September 16, 2025 Order. The Court considered all 19 of the allegedly “overlooked” arguments and found that they lacked merit. Mr. Moore’s argument 20 that the Court did not address these arguments is a myopic reading of the Court’s September 16, 21 2025 Order. The fact that Mr. Moore now describes these issues in slightly different language 22 (but not different in substance) from how they were briefed and resolved in the September 16, 23 2025 Order does not show that the Court failed to address the issues. There is no requirement that 24 a court order recite each and every one of a party’s arguments in haec verba or that a court act as a 25 document clerk checking off each and every contention raised by a party as part of the analysis. 26 See Roy v. Cnty. of L.A., CV 12-09012-AB (FFMx),

, at *4 (C.D. Cal.
