WRIT OF ATTACHMENT WITHOUT

Re: Dkt. No. 7

13
Plaintiff Smaato, Inc., filed this civil action against Defendant Mobiewalla, Inc., on
14
September 7, 2016. The day after Plaintiff filed the action, it filed a motion for writ of attachment
15
pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Section 483.010 and noticed the motion for
16
hearing on October 27, 2016. (Dkt. No. 7.) After Defendant failed to timely appear or respond to
17
service of the summons and complaint, Plaintiff filed a motion for default judgment by the clerk
18
and requested that the Court continue the hearing on the application for a writ of attachment until
19
November 10, 2016 anticipating a ruling on the motion for default judgment in advance of the
20
hearing. (Dkt. Nos. 12 & 13.) The Court granted the request, but due to an electronic filing error
21
the motion for default judgment was not decided before November 10. Plaintiff did not appear for
22
the rescheduled hearing on November 10, 2016. Given Plaintiff’s stated preference to proceed
23
with default judgment in lieu of the writ of attachment, the Court DENIES the motion for writ of
24
attachment without prejudice.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
