Re: [REDACTED] v. Indyke et al., 19-cv-10788 (GHWDCF)
DEBRA FREEMAN¶
UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE¶
Your Honor:¶
We represent Plaintiff [REDACTED] and write on behalf of all parties.¶
On January 21, 2020, Defendants submitted a pre-motion letter to Judge [REDACTED] proposing to file a motion to dismiss. (ECF 16). On January 22, Judge [REDACTED] issued an Amended Order Referring Case to Magistrate Judge clarifying that dispositive motions in this matter will be referred to Your Honor for Report & Recommendation. (ECF 17). It is our understanding of Your Honor's Individual Practices that no pre-motion letters are required for motions other than discovery motions, though Plaintiff's counsel is of course happy/prepared to submit one should Your Honor prefer that.¶
Accordingly, we write 1) to seek clarification that Plaintiff need not submit a letter in response to Defendants' January 21 pre-motion letter addressed to Judge [REDACTED], and 2) to propose the following briefing schedule for Defendants' motion:¶
-
- Defendants' motion papers to be filed by February 25, 2020;
-
- Plaintiffs' opposition papers to be filed by March 17, 2020;
-
- Defendants' reply papers to be filed by March 31, 2020.
We appreciate Your Honor's attention to this matter.¶
Very truly yours,¶
