Epidemic Sound, AB v. Meta Platforms, Inc., 3:22-cv-04223, No. 262 (N.D.Cal. Mar. 27, 2025)
On March 10, 2025, the parties filed a discovery dispute joint letter related to Meta’s clawback of 15 documents.
Epidemic asserts the clawback was improper because the documents “uniformly lacked attorneys as parties to the communications and reflected factual, business information that is indisputably relevant and discoverable in this action.” (Dkt. No. 249 at 2.)
Meta asserts four of the documents are shielded by the work-product doctrine, which Northern District of California United States District Court “protects from discovery documents and tangible things prepared by a party or his representative in anticipation of litigation.” United States v. Richey, 632 F.3d 559, 567 (9th Cir. 2011) (quotation marks omitted).
Meta has met its burden as to the following documents, which convey messages between non-legal employees gathering information and preparing for settlement discussions with Epidemic:
Meta has met its burden with respect to the following documents: • META-EPDMS_00281048: The redacted portion describes a meeting with legal, including details about what was discussed.

In Re: FTX Cryptocurrency Exchange Collapse Litigation, 1:23-md-03076, No. 860 (S.D.Fla. Mar. 27, 2025)
Plaintiffs explain that Defendants have put allegations and evidence into factual dispute via declarations attached to their motions to dismiss.
Case 1:23-md-03076-KMM Document 860 Entered on FLSD Docket 03/27/2025 Page 5 of 7 “An individual or entity named as a defendant is not obliged to engage in litigation unless notified of the action, and brought under a court’s authority, by formal process.” Murphy Bros., Inc. v. Michetti Pipe Stringing, Inc., 526 U.S. 344, 350 (1999).
“Absent proper service of process, a district court has no jurisdiction to compel a defendant to respond to discovery requests.” Forde v. Miami Fed. Dep't of Corr., 578 F. App’x 877, 880 (11th Cir. 2014).
The Court previously held when lifting the discovery stay in December 2023 that “[t]he disputed facts related to Plaintiffs’ theories of personal jurisdiction are intertwined with the merits of the respective cases.” (ECF No. 422) at 5.
The Court cannot make a determination that jurisdictional discovery is warranted without a finding that such Defendants have been brought under the Court’s authority by formal process.

In Re: FTX Cryptocurrency Exchange Collapse Litigation, 1:23-md-03076, No. 844 (S.D.Fla. Feb. 21, 2025)
Motion to ContinueGranted
In Defendants’ responses in opposition to the Motion, Defendants argue that the Court need not delay the briefing process any further to allow a second round of jurisdictional discovery.
The Sino Global Defendants (as defined in their Response) argue that Plaintiffs have failed to serve any of the Sino Global Defendants properly, and it is unclear how additional jurisdictional discovery is relevant to Case 1:23-md-03076-KMM Document 844 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/21/2025 Page 2 of 3 opposing their motion to dismiss for insufficient service of process.
The only argument proffered as to why the Court should not continue briefing deadlines absent a peek at the merits of the Jurisdictional Discovery Motion, is linked to the Court’s December 18, 2023 Order.
This argument, however, disregards the posture of the MDL at that time, wherein the Court was considering the jurisdictional discovery request for multiple tracks of Defendants, and the respective motions to dismiss were fully briefed.
The Parties’ briefing deadlines with respect to Defendants’ Rule 12(b)(2) and (5) Motions to Dismiss (ECF Nos. 815–817, 819) are hereby Case 1:23-md-03076-KMM Document 844 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/21/2025 Page 3 of 3 STAYED.

Epidemic Sound, AB v. Meta Platforms, Inc., 3:22-cv-04223, No. 227 (N.D.Cal. Jan. 30, 2025)
Motion to File
On October 10, 2024, the Court denied Epidemic Sound, AB’s (“Epidemic”) request to compel Meta Platforms, Inc. (“Meta”) to produce a full export of all data associated with Epidemic’s Rights Manager account.
On September 25, 2024, the parties submitted a joint statement “regarding a discovery dispute related to Epidemic’s request that Meta provide a full and complete export of data from its Rights Manager system concerning Epidemic’s works.” (Dkt. No. 170 at 1.)
Under this inherent authority, and for the reasons stated at oral argument, the Court orders Meta to produce the on-demand export of Epidemic’s Rights Manager account no later than February 14, 2025.
“Despite this strong preference for public access, we have carved out an exception for sealed materials attached to a discovery motion unrelated to the merits of a case.” Id. at 1097 (cleaned up).
Nevertheless, pursuant to its inherent authority, the Court orders Meta to produce the on-demand export of Epidemic’s Rights Manager account by February 14, 2025.

In Re: FTX Cryptocurrency Exchange Collapse Litigation, 1:23-md-03076, No. 774 (S.D.Fla. Nov. 13, 2024)
Motion to File Amended ComplaintGranted
The policy of the federal rules is to permit liberal amendment to facilitate determination of claims on the merits and to prevent litigation from becoming a technical exercise in the fine points of pleading.
Case 1:23-md-03076-KMM Document 774 Entered on FLSD Docket 11/13/2024 Page 2 of 4 is a substantial reason to deny leave to amend, the discretion of the district court is not broad enough to permit denial.
The Court finds that Moonstone’s futility arguments do not provide a basis for denying Plaintiffs’ Motion to Amend pursuant to Rule 15(a)(2).
For Moonstone to prevail on its futility argument, it must show that the Proposed Amended Complaint is “subject to dismissal.” Burger King Corp. v. Weaver, 169 F.3d 1310, 1320 (11th Cir. 1999).
However, arguments that a proposed Case 1:23-md-03076-KMM Document 774 Entered on FLSD Docket 11/13/2024 Page 3 of 4 amendment is futile or fails to remedy defects present in an earlier complaint “are matters best addressed in a motion to dismiss rather than a basis to deny leave to amend.” Benzion v. Vivint, Inc., No. 12-61826-CIV, 2013 WL 12014439, at *3 (S.D.
