(Doc. 27.) Local Rule 133(b)(2) provides that “[a]ny person appearing pro se 18 may not utilize electronic filing except with the permission of the assigned Judge or Magistrate 19 20 21 22 23 24 Judge.” Instead, “[a]ll parties shall file and serve paper documents as required by applicable Federal Rules of Civil . . . Procedure or by these [Local] Rules.” E.D. Cal. Local Rule 133(b)(2). Nonetheless, a pro se party may “[r]equest to use paper or electronic filing as exceptions from these Rules” if (1) they submit a stipulation between the parties “as provided in [Local Rule] 143;” or (2) “if a stipulation cannot be had,” by a “written motion[] setting out an explanation of reasons for the exception.” E.D. Cal. Local Rule 133(b)(3). 25 In this case, the parties have not filed a joint stipulation permitting Plaintiff to use 26 electronic filing. Instead, Plaintiff included a request to use electronic filing and an explanation of 27 the basis for this request in the Motion. (See Doc. 27 at 1–3.) The Court finds that the explanation 28 1 provided by Plaintiff in the Motion, (see id.), is insufficient to deviate from the default rule that 2 “[a]ny person appearing pro se may not utilize electronic filing.” E.D. Cal. Local Rule 133(b)(2). 3 Accordingly, the Court DENIES the Motion. (Doc. 27.) 4 5 IT IS SO ORDERED. 6 Dated: 7 April 25, 2017 /s/ Sheila K.
