ABEL P. REYES,

v.

ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF’S
MOTIONS WITHOUT PREJUDICE
(Docs. 95, 97)

M. FLORES,

15

Defendant.

16
On September 25, 2019, Plaintiff filed a “[n]otice” requesting that the Court “address the

17
18

contents of Plaintiff’s Notice of Lodging of Deposition Transcript of Plaintiff.” (Doc. 95.) On

19

September 30, 2019, Plaintiff filed a “[n]otice” requesting that the Court “[a]ddress the contents

20

of Declaration of Abel P. Reyes In Support of Plaintiff’s Pretrial Statements.” (Doc. 97.)
The Court construes Plaintiff’s “notices” as motions, since Plaintiff is requesting Court

21
22

action. However, the Court is unsure of what Plaintiff is requesting. The Court acknowledges that

23

Plaintiff lodged and filed a notice of lodging of his deposition transcript for use at trial, (Doc. 94).

24

The Court also acknowledges that Plaintiff filed a declaration in support of his pretrial statements,

25

(Doc. 98). Outside of this, though, the Court is unsure what Plaintiff is requesting in his motions.

well as the grounds for the request. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 7(b).
