Doc. 464

39l F. d 1088 (9th Cir. 2004), of Kerzner's Atlantis mark in Las Vegas as of 3

issue .

Proposed Joint Pretrial Qrder at 3 ( 459). #

Plaintiffs request that

the Court enter judgment against Plaintiffs. Id. ( 459). We will treat # Plaintiffs' request as a motion to dismiss and for entry of judgment. Defendants object, alleging that Plaintiffs are trying to exclude
evidence and artificially limit the record. Id. at 4 ( 459) # However,
p roc eedin g with a trial when the sole factual issue has been conceded b y

Plaintiff would be a waste of judicial resources.
IT IS , THEREFORE , HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiff's motion to dismiss and

for entry of judgment is GRKNTED.
