Plaintiff Scott Hellervik brings this putative class action against Defendant Backblaze,

14

Inc., alleging Defendant fails to implement adequate security measures as part of its computer-data

15

backup and recovery services. Dkt. No. 1. The day after filing his Complaint, Plaintiff filed a

16

Motion for Class Certification, requesting the Court enter and continue the Motion until after

17

completion of discovery on class-wide issues, at which time he states he will submit a more

18

detailed memorandum of points and authorities. Dkt. No. 3. As Defendant has yet to appear in

19

this case and Plaintiff’s Motion contemplates briefing beyond that permitted under Civil Local

20

Rule 7, Plaintiff’s Motion is DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.

21

IT IS SO ORDERED.
