On February 23, 2016, defendants National Railroad Passenger Corporation, Barbara Neu,

21

and BNSF Railway Company, filed a request to be allowed to submit a memorandum of points

22

and authorities in support of their motion for summary judgment that is in excess of twenty pages.

(Doc. 60.)
At this time, the undersigned does not have a standing order establishing precise page

24
25

limits for filed motions. There is no page limit established by the Federal Rules of Civil

26

Procedure or by the Eastern District of California Local Rules. Defendants reference a rule in the

27

Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure that limits motions to twenty pages. See Fed. R. App. P.

28

27(d)(2). However, those rules do not apply to the present case.
