United Airlines, Inc. et al. 3:15-cv-00477 VC No. 12-cv-02730-VC United States District Court, N.D. California. August 25, 2015 ORDER Re: Dkt. No. 204
VINCE CHHABRIA, District Judge.
The order to show cause is vacated and the request for attorneys' fees is denied. Although counsel for the plaintiffs unreasonably refused to enter into a protective order, see, e.g., Quality Inv. Prop. Santa Clara, LLC v. Serrano Elec., Inc., 2010 WL 2889178 (N.D. Cal. July 22, 2010), counsel for the defendants wasted a significant amount of their own time, the court's time, and the plaintiffs' time by not following the procedures set forth in the court's standing order.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
