Background

All Surface Publishing, Inc. asked the court for an additional 30-day extension of the deadline to file final dismissal papers.

Order

The court ordered that the deadline for an application to restore the action be extended to July 2, 2025. The court further ordered that, if no such application is made by that date, the action will be dismissed with prejudice, meaning it cannot be brought again. The order does not decide the parties' underlying dispute.
