`
`Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 7-11 and Section C.5 of the Standing Order for
`Civil Cases of the Honorable Beth Labson Freeman, Defendant Kickstarter, PBC
`(“Kickstarter”) hereby requests that its lead counsel, Michael J. Zinna, Esq. of the
`law firm Kelley Drye & Warren LLP, located at 101 Park Avenue, New York, New
`York 10178 be permitted to telephonically attend the Tutorial and Case
`Management Conference scheduled for November 2, 2018, at 9:00 a.m. on the
`following grounds:
`1. Pursuant to Section C.5 of the Standing Order, “Telephonic appearances
`are generally permitted for Case Management Conferences.” Since Mr. Zinna is
`located in New York, New York and the Tutorial and Case Management Conference
`is being held in San Jose, California, appearing telephonically will avoid the
`expense and burden of long distance travel to San Jose, California. Mr. Zinna did
`appear at the September 20, 2018 Case Management Conference in person.
`2. Counsel from Fenwick & West LLP will be appearing at Case Management
`Conference and presenting the tutorial on behalf of Amazon.com, Inc. and Amazon
`Web Services, Inc. (collectively, “Amazon”). Kickstarter is one of the customer
`cases currently on hold while the Court proceeds with the Amazon DJ action,
`therefore, Mr. Zinna’s role at the Tutorial and Case Management Conference would
`be limited to observing the proceedings.
`3. Permitting Mr. Zinna to appear telephonically will cause no undue hardship
`or prejudice to any party.
`4. Counsel for Plaintiffs does not object to this request.
`Wherefore, Kickstarter respectfully requests that the Court permit Mr. Zinna to
`appear telephonically at the Tutorial and Case Management Conference on November
`2, 2018.
