Qyral TRO modified to allow Ellie MD to operate
At a June 12th hearing held after Qyral secured an ex-parte Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) against Ellie MD, the parties have agreed on new terms.
The new terms, part of a yet to be confirmed superseding TRO, allow Ellie MD to recommence business operations and compete against Qyral.
As per the new agreed on TRO terms;
- Qyral consultants will be free to choose between Qyral or Ellie MD;
- neither Qyral or Ellie MD are permitted to specifically solicit consultants of either company;
- Qyral and Ellie MD are not permitted to sell pharmaceutical products manufactured from the same pharmacy (I’m assuming existing contracts take precedent here).
Qyral’s and Ellie MD’s attorneys have been ordered to confer and file a joint proposed superseding TRO, which the court will then sign off on.
Outstanding motion hearings, including Qyral’s requested preliminary injunction, Hanieh Sigari’s contempt motion against Dariusz Banasik and Sigari’s motion to dissolve the original Qyral TRO, have been continued to August 21st.
Prior to that hearing a Joint Status Report has been ordered filed by August 9th.
Ellie MD reopening remains pending on finalization of the proposed superseding TRO. I’ll check back on the weekend for a status update, failing which early next week.
Update 25th June 2024 – A June 20th order has put the agreed upon terms in the superseding TRO on the record.
A preliminary injunction hearing has been scheduled for August 21st.
It’s sure a good thing the judge told Hanieh she cannot solicit Qyral consultants to go over to Ellie MD now that she has already completely gutted them, what more could she take from them at this point.
Consultants who want to escape drama of a corporate job are finding themselves in a much more spicy and irritating drama in their life. lmaooo
Nothing on the docket regarding the TRO as of the weekend.
Any updates?
Last checked on Tuesday. Today is a pub holiday in the US.
Next update check is scheduled for Monday. Might be earlier if a reader tips me off.
Article updated confirming superseding TRO order is now in place.
Does this mean Ellie MD is in business or is that pending the August hearing?
They can operate as per the terms of the agreed upon superseding TRO.
Hearing rumblings Mr. Banasik could be jailed at this next hearing for multiple violations of the federal judge. True or False?
Prison in contempt proceedings isn’t dished out willy nilly. There has to be an order, violation of the order, contempt proceedings, typically another order and then, perhaps as a last resort, prison is ordered for continued violation.
Contempt proceedings in Qyral aren’t anywhere near that. We have a bunch of allegations that there hasn’t even been a hearing on yet.
