Plaintiffs, who are proceeding with retained counsel, bring this civil action
20
alleging intellectual and antitrust claims. Pending before the court is plaintiff’s motion to compel
21
(Doc. 176). On December 12, 2018, the court approved the parties’ stipulation to continue the
22
hearing on plaintiff’s motion to January 9, 2019, with a joint statement pursuant to Eastern
23
District of California Local Rule 251 due by January 2, 2019. Under Local Rule 251(a), if there
24
has been a failure to meet and confer, the moving party shall file an affidavit to that effect in lieu
25
of the joint statement. Because the parties have not filed a timely joint statement, and because
26
plaintiff has not filed a timely affidavit regarding a failure to meet and confer, the matter is
27
dropped from the court’s hearing calendar without prejudice, and terminated as a pending motion.
28
See Local Rule 251(a).
