1laintiff Jim Brown and Defendants Brett C. Brewer, Daniel L. Mosher,2 Lawrence Moreau, David S. Carlick, Andrew Sheehan, Richard Rosenblatt, James3 Quandt and William Woodward (collectively, the "Parties") respectfully submit this4 Objection to James Nelsons Request for Judicial Notice in Support of Motion to5 Intervene ("RJN") filed on March 5 , 2012. (Docket No. 428.)6r. Nelsons Motion to Intervene ("Motion") was scheduled for hearing on7 February 27, 2012. (Docket No. 422.) By order dated February 15, 2012, this Court8 took the Mo tion under subm ission and ordered: "Further briefing, if any, shall be filed9 in accordance with the Local Rules as if the noticed hearing date had not been10 vacated." (Docket No. 422.) Indisputably, the RJN is untimely as it was filed a week

11 after the noticed hearing date for the Motion and should be disregarded on that basis12 alone. See Local Rule 7-1 2 . See also Great Basin Mine Watch v. Hankins, 456 F.3d1 3 9 5 5 1 975-76 (9th Cir. 2006) (court refused to take judicial notice where application14 was untimely and had no relevance).1 5n addition, none of the w ebsites and quotes supp osedly taken from new spapers,16 websites, articles, letters and the like are properly the subject of judicial notice17 because, among other things, the statements are not beyond reasonable dispute. See,18 e.g., Fed. R. Evid. 201(b) (judicial notice is only appropriate for matters generally1 9 know n w ithin the territorial jurisdiction of the court or cap able of accurate and ready20 determination by resort to resources whose accuracy cannot be questioned); Lee v.21 City of Los Angeles, 250 F.3d 668, 689 (9th Cir. 2001) (holding that the trial court22 erred by taking judicial notice of disputed facts stated in public records). And, to the23 extent that Mr. Nelson is requesting that the Court take judicial notice of the2 4 statements set forth in his RJN for the truth of the m atter asserted therein, it w ould be25 improper. See, e.g., Lee, 2 50 F.3d at 690 (court could not take judicial notice of truth26 of the facts recited in another courts opinion). Judicial notice should also be denied27 because the supposed facts are irrelevant. See G reat Basin M ine Watch, 456 F.3d at2 8 975-76 . Finally, Mr. Nelsons "evidence" is not properly authenticated and thus

cannot be judicially noticed or admitted. Fed. R. Evid. 901(a); Victaulic Co. v.Tieman, 499 F.3d 227, 236 (3d Cir. 2007) (holding that the court erred in takingjudicial notice of information from the defendants website because, among otherthings, the webpage was not properly authenticated).

For all of these reasons, the Parties request that Mr. Nelsons request forjudicial notice be disregarded as untimely and/or denied as improper.DATED: March 9, 2012OBBINS GELLER RUDMAN& DOWD LLPDARREN J. ROBBINSRANDALL J. BARONELLEN GUSIKOFF STEWARTDAVID T. WISSBROECKEREUN JIN LEE
