On Plaintiff's Motion for Reargument DENIED
ORDER
HONORABLE MARY M. JOHNSTON, JUDGE
1. By Order dated September 27, 2021, the Court denied Plaintiff's Renewed Motion to Dismiss.
2. Plaintiff has moved for reargument. Plaintiff contends that the Court misapprehended material facts about the status of the related case pending in California.
3. Plaintiff further asserts that the Court misapprehended material facts about the status of the dismissal of Plaintiff's claim for breach of fiduciary duty. Plaintiff also cites a decision of the California Court that Defendants would not be prejudiced by proceeding in California on all claims.
4. The purpose of moving for reargument is to seek reconsideration of findings of fact, conclusions of law, or judgment of law. Reargument usually will be denied unless the moving party demonstrates that the Court overlooked a precedent or legal principle that would have a controlling effect, or that it has misapprehended the law or the facts in a manner affecting the outcome of the decision. "A motion for reargument should not be used merely to rehash the arguments already decided by the court." To the extent Plaintiff has asserted issues that were not raised in the submissions in support of its motion, new arguments may not be presented for the first time in a motion for reargument.

THEREFORE, Defendants' Motion for Reargument is hereby DENIED.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
