NAVISTAR, INC.; INTERNATIONAL TRUCK

DEFENDANTS

ORDER

Richardson's motion, Document No. 96, is granted in part and denied in
part. Richardson may have until 27 February 2012 to respond to Navistar's
motion about Mr. Berry. An insufficient basis exists to strike Navistar's
motion. And the Court admonishes Richardson to stop filing motions to
strike when what it really needs is more time to respond. Absent some
extraordinary circumstances, such as the ones presented by Navistar's
defective Local Rule 56.1 statement, the Court will not be striking court
papers. Richardson should devote her time to responding on the merits
rather than procedural skirmishing.
So Ordered.
