SyncPoint Imaging, LLC v. Nintendo of America Inc. et al, No. 2:15-cv-00247 (E.D. Tex. Feb. 9, 2018)

From the Opinion

The passage below is extracted verbatim from the opening of the document. It has not been editorially summarized — consult the full opinion for the court's complete reasoning.

Before the Court is the Report and Recommendation entered by Magistrate Judge Payne, which recommends denying SyncPoint’s motion to dismiss the case without prejudice for mootness and further recommends that a dismissal with prejudice be entered. For dispositive matters referred to a Magistrate Judge, the district court must “determine de novo any part of the magistrate judge’s disposition that has been properly objected to.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(3); 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C).
