Case No. 2:12-cv-02137-GMN-NJK
ORDER DENYING PROPOSED
DISCOVERY PLAN (Docket No. 12)
13
On February 4, 2013, the Court denied a proposed discovery plan, noting that the parties
14
failed to comply with at least four aspects of the relevant Local Rules. Docket No. 11. The first
15
deficiency noted by the Court was that the proposed discovery plan failed to “state the date the first
16
defendant answered or otherwise appeared.” Id. at 1 (quoting Local Rule 26-1(e)(1)). The Court
17
ultimately denied the proposed discovery plan with instructions that it be refiled. Id. at 2.
18
The parties have now filed another proposed discovery plan that again fails to identify the
19
date the first defendant answered or otherwise appeared. See Docket No. 12. The rules and
20
procedures of this Court are designed to foster the efficient resolution of cases. The parties are
21
expected to be familiar with and to follow these rules and procedures. The Court is especially
22
disappointed with this shortcoming given that it was expressly identified as a deficiency in the
23
Court’s February 4, 2013 Order.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED this 7th day of February, 2013.
