ORDER STRIKING DEFENDANT'S
OBJECTIONS TO EVIDENCE

GROCERYWORKS.COM, LLC,

Re: Dkt. No. 89

Defendant.

United States District Court
Northern District of California

Defendant’s motion for summary judgment (dkt. 71) is currently pending before the Court.

13

On April 27, 2016, Defendant filed its reply (dkt. 88) and a separate, twenty-nine-page

14

compilation of objections (dkt. 89) to evidence submitted with Plaintiff’s opposition. This Court’s

15

local rules provide that “[a]ny evidentiary and procedural objections to the opposition must be

16

contained within the reply brief or memorandum.” Civ. L.R. 7-3(c). Defendant’s separate

17

objections are therefore STRICKEN and will not be considered in the Court’s ruling on the

18

pending motion.

19

The page limit for a reply brief is fifteen pages. Civ. L.R. 7-3(c), 7-4(b). Defendant’s

20

reply is ten pages long—five pages under the limit. The Court therefore grants Defendant leave to

21

file narrowly tailored objections to evidence, formatted in a manner consistent with this Court’s

22

rules and not exceeding five pages, no later than May 27, 2016. Defendant’s revised objections

23

may not rely on or incorporate by reference the objections stricken by this Order.
