Plaintiff should have ready access to this information, and it is proportional to the needs of the case.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The U.S. District Court in Seattle issued the order due to a request from Zillow after reports surfaced stating that employees impacted by layoffs at the brokerage were allowed to keep their laptops and other pieces of company technology as severance. In addition, there were reports that one employee wiped potential evidence from her REX-issued laptop that she retained as severance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In response to Zillow\u2019s motion to compel, the brokerage stated that the request was a \u201cfishing expedition\u201d that aimed to embarrass the company before the court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the motion, Zillow asked the court to force REX to provide a list of employees who have left the firm since January 2021 and state if they had been allowed to keep their company-issued laptop. However, in the order, Zilly narrowed the request to a list of employees who had both left REX and retained their company laptop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are pleased with the judge\u2019s decision requiring REX to fully participate in the discovery process and fulfill its obligations to protect and produce relevant information and documents related to this litigation,\u201d a Zillow spokesperson wrote in an email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>REX filed an <a href=\"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/03\/1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">anti-trust lawsuit<\/a> against NAR and Zillow in March 2021 for a NAR rule known as the no-commingling rule, that prompted Zillow to separate non-MLS listings from MLS listings on its website, including listings from REX.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the ensuing months, NAR has filed its own <a href=\"https:\/\/preprod.realtrends.com\/blog\/articles\/nar-fires-back-in-countersuit-against-discount-brokerage\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">countersuit<\/a> alleging that the brokerage makes false and misleading claims to deceive consumers. The <a href=\"https:\/\/preprod.realtrends.com\/blog\/articles\/court-dismisses-nars-countersuit-against-rex\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">countersuit was dismissed<\/a> in early May.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A few weeks later, <a href=\"https:\/\/preprod.realtrends.com\/blog\/articles\/rex-closes-brokerage-hires-david-boies-in-zillow-lawsuit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">REX laid off<\/a> most of its remaining employees.
