The defendants brought a motion for summary judgment.
Prior to the hearing, the plaintiffs objected to proceeding with the motion virtually via Zoom and requested an adjournment until an in-person hearing could be held.
The court denied the adjournment request, finding no prejudice to the parties in proceeding virtually.
The court noted that the Zoom platform is effective, the documentary record is easily accessible electronically, and an adjournment would cause unnecessary delay.
The motion was ordered to proceed virtually as scheduled.
