A federal court delayed a motion hearing by one week in T-Mobile’s challenge of California USF contribution changes (see 2303100046 and 2302280037). The previously scheduled Thursday virtual hearing will now be March 23, the U.S. District Court in Northern California said in a Monday text entry in case 3:23-cv-00483 (Pacer). In a separate case about a California social media law (see 2303130003), the same court on Friday granted California's motion to postpone a June 22 hearing on NetChoice's preliminary injunction motion until July 27 at 1:30 p.m. PDT. That hearing will be in-person only, the court said.
The court should deny DOJ’s motion to strike and reject its request for “an extraordinary 65-day extension” intended to delay “the inevitable reckoning for the federal government’s indefensible misconduct,” said the attorneys general for Louisiana and Missouri in a memorandum (docket 3:22-cv-01213) in U.S District Court for Louisiana in Monroe, opposing DOJ’s motion to strike their proposed findings of fact in a First Amendment social media case.

The Commerce Department and the International Trade Commission published the following Federal Register notices March 14 on AD/CVD proceedings:
NetChoice opposes California’s request for a one-month delay to July 20 in the evidentiary hearing on the company’s motion for a preliminary injunction to block the state’s age-appropriate social media design law, AB-2273, from taking effect in July 2024, NetChoice responded Friday (docket 5:22-cv-08861) in U.S. District Court for Northern California in San Jose. The state said the delay is needed to accommodate the preexisting vacation plans of its two top lawyers, noting postponement is acceptable because the law won’t take effect for more than a year. “But NetChoice’s members are already experiencing irreparable harm because of the actions they must take in anticipation of the enforcement date,” said its opposition. “A prompt decision is needed to redress these harms.” Even though the state can’t enforce AB-2273 until 2024, “the law requires providers to assess the risk that features or services introduced before 2024" will expose minors to harmful content, said NetChoice. “This requirement violates the First Amendment and is already deterring providers from introducing features or services” the state might deem harmful, it said. NetChoice members also “have already spent and continue to spend significant resources on compliance, another form of irreparable harm,” it said.
