As Google Is Sued By Googles A Motion To Set Aside Magistrate Order Is Sealed But Granted

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon
BBC - Guardian UK - Honduras - ESPN

SDNY COURTHOUSE, March 11 – Google has been sued by Googles, a platform formed in the mid-1990s for children's content. 

 On December 3 U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Magistrate Stewart D. Aaron held a discovery dispute proceeding. Inner City Press covered it.

   Google and Alphabet want to block certain requested depositions. They prevailed and blocked as to Susan Wojcicki, Terri Chin and Andrew Abrams.

 But Adam Berea will be deposed - as will one of these three: Malik Ducard, Ruchi Bezoles or Pavni Diwanji. 

  Third party deponent Timothy Alger will be limited to three hours.  Held in abeyance, for now, is Ramsey AL-Salam.  

 Judge Aaron again said, lawyers in the SDNY are officers of the court and he relies on their truthfulness.

 On February 5, Judge Aaron held another proceeding. Inner City Press again covered it. Judge Aaron made detailed inquiries and ruled that Google may solicit testimony regarding Plaintiff's theory or theories of damages.

  On March 10 Google filed a motion "to set aside or modify Magistrate Judge Aaron's Feb 23 Order." While that document is still only for "selected parties," a conference was held on March 11 and Inner City Press covered it.
 
   Judge Aaron spoke about the history of Magistrates, and noted that following the COVID backlog, District Judges like Lorna G. Schofield in this case will be very busy with criminal matters. He urged that issues and motions be raised all at once so he can rule, particularly on the applicability of the Ambac decision. Inner City Press will continue to follow this case.

The case is SM Kids, LLC v. Google LLC et al., 18-cv-2637 (Schofield / Aaron)
