1 2 3 4 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 5 NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 6 7 SONNI ECHEVERRIA-CORZAN, Case No. 25-cv-04253-AMO

8 Plaintiff, ORDER DENYING MOTION TO 9 v. DISMISS

10 FOX CORPORATION, et al., Re: Dkt. No. 11 Defendants. 11

12 13 Defendants Fox Corporation’s and Fox News Network, LLC’s motion to dismiss came on 14 for hearing before this Court on November 6, 2025. Given the similarities between this case and 15 others cited repeatedly in the parties’ papers, including Mirmalek v. Los Angeles Times Commc’ns 16 LLC, No. 24-CV-01797-CRB,

(N.D. Cal. Dec. 12, 2024), Shah v. Fandom, 17 Inc.,

, 929 (N.D. Cal. 2024), and Greenley v. Kochava, Inc.,

1024, 1050 (S.D. Cal. 2023), the Court finds Plaintiff’s complaint plausibly states a claim under 19 California Invasion of Privacy Act,

et seq. (“CIPA”). For the same 20 reasons that those earlier courts found that challenged online tracking software could violate 21 CIPA, and the similarity of the technology at issue here, there are no distinguishing aspects that 22 warrant dismissal here. Accepting the allegations as pleaded, the Court accordingly DENIES the 23 motion to dismiss for the reasons stated at the hearing. 24 // 25 // 26 // 27 // 1 The Court also held an initial case management conference on November 6, 2025. The 2 || Court ORDERS the parties to submit a supplemental case management statement by no later than 3 November 20, 2025. 4 5 IT IS SO ORDERED. 6 Dated: November 7, 2025 7 - .
