Opinion
Trial Court Opinion
I. Background
Plaintiff Ing. Dipl.-Ing. (FH) Elhar Muminovic (“Plaintiff”), appearing pro se, initiated this action against Defendant Blizzard Entertainment, Inc. (“Defendant”) on August 25, 2022, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. (Dkt. 1.) On August 29, 2022, the presiding Southern District of New York court sua sponte transferred this case to the United States District Court for the Central District of California pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1406 because Defendant resides in Irvine, Orange County, California. (See Dkt. 3.) Plaintiff has filed two documents since the transfer. First, on October 11, 2022, Plaintiff submitted an application to electronically file documents as a pro se litigant. (Dkt. 10.) Second, on the same day, Plaintiff filed a “letter re announcement of the deposit regarding court fees,” stating: “Enclosed I, Dipl.-Ing (FH) Elhar Muminovic, will send you the confirmation for the payment of the required fee!” (Dkt. 11 at 1.) The court later granted Plaintiff’s application for pro se filing on October 20, 2022. (Dkt. 13.) _____________________________________________________________________________
