How Judge Klausner decides
Patterns drawn from this judge's own signed orders. Every observation links to the order it came from.
What persuades
Denies a motion to stay-and-abey a mixed habeas petition, dismissing the petition with prejudice on the recommendation.
“Petitioner's motion to stay and abey is denied.”
On de novo review of an immigration-habeas recommendation, he rejected a post-deprivation bond hearing as an inadequate remedy for re-detention without notice or a pre-detention hearing and ordered immediate release.
“IT IS ORDERED that Judgment be entered granting the Petition and ordering Respondents to immediately release Petitioner under the same conditions to which he was subject prior to his re-detention.”
Procedural preferences
On habeas and prisoner cases, conducts de novo review of the magistrate's recommendation and enters judgment adopting it, dismissing petitions with prejudice for lack of exhaustion or merit.
“IT IS ORDERED that: (1) the Court accepts and adopts the Report and Recommendation, and (2) Judgment be entered dismissing the First Amended Petition and the entire action with prejudice.”
Cautions
Will deny a California anti-SLAPP special motion to strike a right-of-publicity claim.
“Presently before the Court is RNC's Special Motion to Strike Plaintiffs Common Law Right of Publicity claim. For the following reasons, the Court DENIES RNC's Motion.”
