  1. Neda Faraji et al v. Target Corporation et al

    NOTICE OF MOTION AND MOTION to Strike Gifford Complaint and Declarations Submitted With Plaintiff's Request for Judicial Notice in Support of Plaintiff's Motion for Class Certification Request for Judicial Notice 47

    Filed November 1, 2017

    Gifford Decl., ¶ 29. Irrelevant and immaterial (Fed. R. Evid. 401, 402). The declarant’s experience during her training is irrelevant to this action, which relates to the claims of ETL- APs in California.

  2. Neda Faraji et al v. Target Corporation et al

    NOTICE OF MOTION AND MOTION to Strike Putative Class Member Declartions Submitted in Support of Plaintiff's Motion for Class Certification NOTICE OF MOTION AND MOTION to Certify Class 45 , APPLICATION to file document Unredacted Motion for Class Certification, Declarations of David Spivak and Neda Faraji in Support Thereof, and Exhibits 11-15, 18-22, 25-28, 31-33, and 42-47 in Support Thereof under seal 48

    Filed November 1, 2017

    To the extent the declarant wants the Court to infer that no other ETL-APs performed certain tasks, the declarant’s statement lacks foundation and is speculative. Irrelevant and immaterial (Fed. R. Evid. 401, 402). That the declarant and other ETL-APs may have been unauthorized to perform these tasks, which are outside the scope of the job duties of an ETL-AP, is irrelevant to whether Target is liable for some wage-and-hour violation that would give rise to class certification.

  3. Bayer Healthcare Pharmaceuticals Inc. v. Biogen Idec Inc.

    REPLY BRIEF to Opposition to Motion

    Filed April 17, 2017

    , 38:13– 21, 161:2–162:15. FRE 401, 402, and 403 The cited portions of Mr. Fisk’s deposition transcript do not support Biogen’s statement, and Biogen mischaracterizes Mr. Fisk’s testimony. Thus, the deposition testimony is inadmissible as irrelevant because it has no tendency to make Biogen’s purported fact more or less probable than it would be without the deposition testimony.

  4. M.H. v. County of Alameda et al

    MOTION in Limine

    Filed November 21, 2014

    Evidence is relevant if it has any tendency to make a fact of consequence to the determination of the action more or less probable than it would be without that evidence. Fed. R. Evid. §401. Evidence that is otherwise relevant may be excluded if its probative value is substantially outweighed by the danger of unfair prejudice, confusing the issues, misleading the jury, undue delay, wasting time, or needlessly presenting cumulative evidence.

    MOTION in Limine Plaintiffs' Motions in Limine

    Filed October 20, 2008

    For these reasons, allowing the Defendants to suggest that the error requirement of reissue was improper based upon Mr. Waraksa or Mr. Moscovitch's intent would be contrary to law and irrelevant, and would be unduly prejudicial and would certainly confuse the jury. Fed. R. Evid. 401, 403. Finally, as discussed in more detail in Plaintiffs' Response to Ergotron's Summary Judgment Motion for Invalidity, see Docket No. 494, a reissue application is proper if the 29 Case 2:06-cv-00272-LED Document 582 Filed 10/20/08 Page 29 of 33 PageID #: 19130 attomey failed to appreciate the scope of the claim.

  10. Chuol v. Nebraska Beef Ltd.

    MOTION in Limine and Memorandum of Law in Support

    Filed May 14, 2010

    Such evidence could create prejudice in the jury based on a possible anti-litigation, or anti-class action litigation sentiment or bias. Accordingly, such arguments and evidence should be precluded because they are irrelevant under FRE 401. Furthermore, introduction of this evidence would create the risk of unfair prejudice and would be a waste of the Court's and the jury's and is therefore inadmissible under FRE 403.
