ORDER

CATAPHORA INC. and ROGER

Defendants.
For the Northern District of California

United States District Court

No. C 12-04965 JSW

Plaintiffs,

/

14

The Court has received Plaintiffs’ “motion to administratively return the transferred file

15

to the transferor court, or alternatively, to stay proceedings pending appeal.” This request is

16

improperly noticed as an administrative request and is impermissible under Civil Local Rule 7-

17

11. The Court has also received a letter from Defendants’ counsel to the court room deputy

18

regarding the improper administrative request. Although the letter was followed by a proper

19

request, letters to the deputy are also impermissible and clearly in violation of this Court’s

20

Standing Order ¶ 2. The parties are both admonished that further failure to comply with this

21

Court’s rules shall result in sanctions.

22

The administrative request to transfer or stay this matter is DENIED as improperly filed.

23

Should Plaintiffs wish to re-file a proper motion in compliance with this Court’s rules, Plaintiffs

24

may so re-file and notice the hearing on a date available on this Court’s calendar.
