Hearing Time: 8:30 a.m.

[TENTATIVE] ORDER RE:

PLAINTIFFS AND CROSS-DEFENDANTS DEMURRER TO FIRST AMENDED CROSS-COMPLAINT

AND RELATED CROSS ACTION

Factual Background

Plaintiffs Richard Breakspear (“Breakspear”) and BreakNite, Inc. (“BreakNite”) (jointly, “Plaintiffs”) filed the instant action against Defendant Laurence Grante (“Grante”) and Granite Productions, Inc. dba Think Up Anger (“TUA”) (jointly, “Defendants”) on January 26, 2017. Thereafter, TUA filed a cross-complaint against Plaintiffs. The operative First Amended Cross-Complaint asserts causes of action for intentional misrepresentation, breach of oral contract, conversion, tortious interference with prospective economic advantage, fraudulent registration of trademark, and unfair business practices (the “FACC”).

Plaintiffs now demur to each cause of action in the FACC. TUA opposes.
