The complaint alleged breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair
19
dealing, and violation of California Business and Professions Code Section 17200, et seq.

Plaintiff also filed an ex parte motion for a temporary restraining order seeking to (1) enjoin
21
defendant from deleting, disabling, or impeding access to any data or content stored on, or
22
uploaded to, Bitcasa’s cloud computing platform or other similar systems, by plaintiff and other
23
Infinite plan subscribers, for fourteen days from the date of this order and (2) order defendant to
24
meet-and-confer with plaintiff within ten days of this order regarding an agreement on a
25
reasonably sufficient period of time for plaintiff and other Infinite plan subscribers to remove
26
their data from Bitcasa’s cloud computing platform or other similar systems. The cost of
27
plaintiff’s one-year subscription to the Infinite plan was $99. Bitcasa allegedly informed plaintiff
28
that he must retrieve all of his data (between seven and eight terabytes of data) before
November 15, 2014, otherwise it would be deleted (Romack Decl. ¶¶ 2, 3, 5, 9, 8).
