GEORGE H. WU, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
The Motion by Defendants Ron Garrett and David Gilcrease's Motion to Dismiss for (1) Lack of Personal Jurisdiction, or, in the Alternative (2) Failure to State a Claim Upon Which Relief May be Granted (Dkt. 48) came on regularly for a final hearing on February 24, 2022, in Courtroom 9D of the above-entitled Court, the Honorable George H. Wu, United States District Court Judge, presiding. Evan S. Strassberg appeared on behalf of Defendants Ron Garrett and David Gilcrease. No appearance was made on that date by Plaintiff Celece (“Plaintiff”).
After full consideration of the matter, the Court finds that it lacks personal jurisdiction over Plaintiff's claim(s) against Defendants Garrett and Gilcrease. Therefore, the Court dismisses this action as against Defendants Garrett and Gilcrease, without prejudice, for lack of personal jurisdiction. Defendants Garrett and Gilcrease are entitled to recover their taxable costs in this action.
