Plaintiff,
v.

ORDER

COUNTY OF SACRAMENTO, et al.,
Defendants.

16
17

On May 25, 2017, plaintiff filed a motion to compel defendants to provide supplemental

18

responses to various requests for production of documents. (ECF No. 63.) For the same reasons

19

outlined in the court’s May 26, 2017 order (see ECF No. 64), and pursuant to Local Rule 251 and

20

the court’s scheduling order, plaintiff’s motion to compel (ECF No. 63) is DENIED WITHOUT

21

PREJUDICE as premature.

22

All parties are cautioned that they are required to initiate and exhaust informal meet-and-

23

confer efforts before requesting an informal telephonic discovery conference or filing a motion to

24

compel. Motions that fail to comply with that requirement will be summarily denied.

25
26

IT IS SO ORDERED.
