U.S. District Judge Matthew J. Kacsmaryk denied a motion from CBS and Paramount seeking to dismiss for failing to state a claim and for improper venue.
“Plaintiffs add a Defendant, a Plaintiff, and a litany of factual allegations and legal claims in their Amended Complaint. Accordingly, the Motions are denied as moot,” Kacsmaryk ruled in a court filing obtained by Fox News Digital <www.foxnews.com/media>.
CBS sought to dismiss the case because it believes Texas is an improper venue, with the case being transferred from Texas to New York as an alternative. Kacsmaryk’s ruling means it will remain in Texas for the time being.
CBS and Paramount have 21 days to renew the motion to dismiss based on the amended complaint.
