CEA and the ITI Council let lapse a Monday deadline for telling the U.S. District Court in Manhattan whether they want to reinstate their preliminary injunction motion to stop New York City’s e-waste law from taking effect or requesting another deadline extension. CEA spokeswoman Jennifer Bemisderfer sidestepped our questions whether that means CEA and ITI soon will withdraw their lawsuit or if U.S. District Judge William Pauley will dismiss it. Green groups have said New York state’s recent enactment of an e-waste law renders the city’s e-waste program and the lawsuit to stop it “moot,” but CEA and ITI officials haven’t directly answered our queries whether they agree. “There are some technical litigation-related issues we're working through right now, but we'll let you know as soon as there is something public,” Bemisderfer told us in an e-mail Tuesday. When CEA and ITI told Pauley earlier this year they had started settlement talks with the city and its co-defendant, the Natural Resources Defense Council, the judge gave the trade groups an April 15 deadline for asking the court to reinstate the preliminary injunction motion if the talks failed. At the trade groups’ request, he granted them one deadline extension to June 14. The case was still open Wednesday and oral argument remains scheduled for July 9.
