Before the Court is Plaintiff States’ Motion to Exclude Opinions of Itamar Simonson.

Defendant Google LLC has filed a Notice of Withdrawal of Expert Itamar Simonson.

In the Notice, Google withdraws its previous designation of Dr. Itamar Simonson as an expert witness and affirms that it will not “call Dr. Simonson as a trial witness in this matter, nor will it elicit testimony from any other witness concerning any opinion previously rendered by Dr. Simonson.” (Dkt. #811 at 1).

Because Dr. Simonson is no longer a designated expert witness in this case, and because no evidence will be submitted concerning any opinion previously rendered by him, it is ORDERED that Plaintiff States’ Motion to Exclude Opinions of Itamar Simonson, (Dkt. #673), is DENIED as moot.

On February 26, 2024, the Government moved to dismiss Mr. Greenspan’s appeal of the district court’s denial of his motion for intervention because, inter alia, Mr. Greenspan has not demonstrated Article III standing.

He has not explained how any of the materials purportedly omitted from the appellate record are relevant to the question of whether he has standing to intervene pursuant to the requirements of Article III and the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

But he does not argue that any trial testimony might transform his general interest in this litigation to an injury in fact, as required for Article III USCA Case #24-5006 Document #2057627 Filed: 06/03/2024 Page 3 of 22
