ORDER; Plaintifffs' inquest papers do not address whether the plaintiffs' settlement with defendant Donna Karen has, or should have, any effect on the default judgment in this action against the Calvin Chen defendants and the Winnie Chen defendants. Plaintiffs and defendants are to simultaneously address this issue by 12/31/03. Plaintiffs request prejudgment interest on their state law claims, but do not calculate such interest. Plaintiffs are to withdraw their claim for prejudgment interest or supply reasonable interest calculations for each plaintiff by 12/31/03. Unless Mr. Courtney has "found" his lost client, or in any event intends to oppose the plaintiffs' motion for an inquest/summary judgment, the Court is inclined to allow Mr. Courtney to withdraw and have a default judgment entered against the Wimmie Chen defendants as well as the already in default Clavin Chen defendants. Mr. Courtney is to advise the Court of his position by 12/22/03. The Court intends to issue its report and recommendation on the inquest in early January 2004. (Signed by Judge Andrew J. Peck on 12/18/03) Copies Faxed By Chambers.(sb, ) (Entered: 01/08/2004)
