Amended Complaint. Defendants have violated the Civil Local Rules of this District and the
Court’s Standing Orders, however, by failing “to provide for chambers a paper copy of each
document that is electronically filed . . . marked ‘Chambers Copy.’” See Civil L.R. 5-1(e)(7);
see also Standing Orders For Civil Cases Assigned to The Honorable Maxine M. Chesney
¶ 2.
Defendants are hereby ORDERED to comply with the Civil Local Rules of this
District and the Court’s Standing Orders by immediately submitting a chambers copy of
their Answer to the Second Amended Complaint.
The Court has previously advised defendants of their failure to comply with the Civil
Local Rules of this District and the Court’s Standing Orders in connection with earlier-filed
documents. (See Order, filed November 27, 2012.) Such reminder appears to have had
little to no effect on compelling compliance therewith.
Parties are expected to comply with court rules without repeated reminders.
Accordingly, defendants are hereby advised that the Court will impose sanctions, including,

1

but not limited to, striking from the record any further electronically-filed document of which

2

a chambers copy has not been timely provided to the Court.
