1 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 2 DISTRICT OF NEVADA 3 *** 4 ARTANO AIDINI, 5 6 7 Case No. 2:15-cv-00505-APG-GWF Plaintiff, v. COSTCO WHOLESALE CORPORATION, 8 Defendant. ORDER DENYING MOTION IN LIMINE REGARDING ARGUMENT THAT ACCIDENT WAS UNAVOIDABLE (ECF No. 45) 9 10 Plaintiff Artano Aidini moves to preclude defendant Costco Wholesale Corporation from 11 making any reference or argument that Aidini’s fall was an unavoidable accident. Costco 12 responds that it did not assert such a defense in its answer, but rather seeks to dispute whether 13 Costco was negligent. 14 There appears to be no actual dispute here, as Costco disclaims any intent to make the 15 argument challenged by Aidini’s motion in limine. I am disappointed that the parties did not 16 resolve this dispute when they met and conferred before filing this motion. 17 IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that plaintiff Artano Aidini’s motion in limine to 18 preclude defendant Costco Wholesale Corporation from making any reference or argument that 19 Aidini’s fall was an unavoidable accident (ECF No. 45) is DENIED. 20 DATED this 10th day of April, 2017. 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 ANDREW P. GORDON UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
