Plaintiffs, who are proceeding with retained counsel, bring this civil action

20

alleging intellectual property and antitrust claims. Pending before the court is plaintiffs’ amended

21

motion to compel (ECF No. 201). Under Eastern District of California Local Rule 251(a), if there

22

has been a failure to meet and confer, the moving party shall file an affidavit to that effect in lieu

23

of the joint statement required under Local Rule 251(c). Because the parties have not filed a

24

timely joint statement, and because plaintiffs have not filed a timely affidavit regarding a failure

25

to meet and confer, the matter is dropped from the court’s hearing calendar without prejudice, and

26

terminated as a pending motion. See Local Rule 251(a).
