Diamonds.Net LLC v. Idex Online, Ltd.
District Court, S.D. New York
1Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM ORDER
RICHARD J. HOLWELL, District Judge:
Defendants Idex Online, Ltd., Idex Online Israel, Ltd., and Idex Online S.A. (collectively “Idex”) move for sanctions against plaintiffs Diamonds.net LLC, Internet Diamond Exchange, LLC, Martin Rapaport, and Ra-paport USA (collectively “Rapaport”).

Because Idex has not complied with the procedural requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11, its motion must be denied.
