IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA
GIL CROSTHWAITE, et al. Plaintiffs, v. FOSTER & SONS GENERAL ENGINEERING CONTRACTORS, INC., Defendant. /
No. C 10-457 MMC ORDER RE: AUGUST 23, 2010 LETTER
United States District Court
The Court is in receipt of a letter, sent August 23, 2010, by McCormick Barstow LLP ("McCormick Barstow") on behalf of defendant Foster & Sons General Engineering Contractors, Inc. ("Foster & Sons"). By said correspondence McCormick Barstow asks the Court to deny plaintiffs' request that the hearing noticed for August 27, 2010 on plaintiffs' Amended Motion for Default Judgment ("Motion") be vacated. At the outset, the Court notes that letter requests do not comply with the Civil Local Rules of this District. See Civil L.R. 7-1, 7-11(b).1 Moreover, although McCormick Barstow states Foster & Sons disputes the amount of judgment sought, it concedes that no opposition to the Motion was filed. Finally, the Court, by order filed August 24, 2010, prior to the Court's receipt of the letter, has required plaintiffs to supplement their showing as to

the claimed amount, and has given plaintiffs the option of either appearing at the hearing or filing supplemental documentation in advance thereof and submitting the matter without a hearing. Accordingly, the Court takes no action on the letter. IT IS SO ORDERED.
