SDNY COURTHOUSE, July 7 – Dorian Studio of Spokane, Washington leased a Canon ImagePress machine in 2016 but it didn't work, suffering from magenta lines and pocking. Dorian sued.
On July 7, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Jed S. Rakoff held a proceeding. Inner City Press covered it.
The two sides jousted, citing for example a decision by SDNY Judge Crotty. Judge Rakoff joked, His chambers are right next to mine, if I don't follow him I might hear from him.
But ultimately Judge Rakoff granted Canon's motion to dismiss the Washington Consumer Protection Act claim, while denying Canon's motion to dismiss for lack of subject matter jurisdiction.
The case is Dorian Studio Inc v. Canon Solutions America Inc et al., 20-cv-3204 (Rakoff)
