Rude Music Inc v. Newt 2012, Inc. et al

Filing 46

MINUTE entry before Honorable Matthew F. Kennelly: Plaintiff's motion to strike affirmative defenses 24 is granted in part and denied in part. Affirmative defenses 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11 in the amended answer are stricken because they consist only of bare legal conclusions. Plaintiff's motion is denied as to affirmative defense 3, which is better dealt with based on a more complete factual record, and as to affirmative defense 13, which may be duplicative of defense 12, but if so plaintiff is not unduly prejudiced by that.
