MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER DENYING REQUEST FOR HEARING THIS MATTER comes before the Court on Plaintiff’s Request for Management Conference, Doc. 38, filed October 15, 2020. “Plaintiff requests a case management conference at the earliest possible opportunity to resolve” the following issues: (i) Plaintiff “requests that the Court issue a briefing schedule requiring each Defendant to prove that this Court has Article III jurisdiction over all claims;” (ii) Plaintiff’s state law claims and punitive and nominal damages; (iii) alignment of the New Mexico Attorney General, if the Attorney General is permitted to intervene; (iv) Plaintiff requests an order for “early Rule 26.1 exchange;” (v) Plaintiff states he “intends to file early Motions for Summary Judgment against each consolidated Defendant” and is “willing to submit himself to a deposition.” The Court denies Plaintiff’s Request for a case management conference at the “earliest possible opportunity to resolve” issues. The Court expects the Parties to confer in an attempt to resolve issues before getting the Court involved. See D.N.M.LR-Civ. 83.9 (“Lawyers appearing in this District must comply with the section for lawyers of “A Creed of Professionalism of the New Mexico Bench and Bar”); A Creed of Professionalism of the New Mexico Bench and Bar (“I Dockets.Justia.com Case 1:20-cv-00843-WJ-GBW Document 55 Filed 11/23/20 Page 2 of 2 will attempt to resolve, by agreement, my objections to matters contained in my opponent’s pleadings and discovery requests”). The Magistrate Judge will set a conference at an appropriate time. The Court notes that Plaintiff filed his Request for Management Conference as a “Notice.” All requests to the Court should be filed as a “Motion.” IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiff’s Request for Management Conference, Doc. 38, filed October 15, 2020, is DENIED. ________________________________________ WILLIAM P.
