Re: Dkt. No. 26

Defendant.

18

Plaintiffs unilaterally filed a discovery letter brief requesting the Court to compel

19 defendant United Airlines to augment its responses to interrogatory 27. Plaintiffs’ counsel
20 failed to show that the parties have met and conferred prior to filing the letter brief and also
21 failed to follow my standing order to submit discovery disputes in a joint letter brief. See
22 Mag. Judge N. Cousins, Civil Standing Order, updated Aug. 24, 2012 (copy attached).
23 Accordingly, the Court DENIES plaintiffs’ letter brief WITHOUT PREJUDICE. The
24 parties are ORDERED to meet and confer. If they cannot resolve this dispute, they may
25 submit a joint letter brief in accordance with my standing order.
26

IT IS SO ORDERED.
