THE CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY; THE SAN JOSE STATE UNIVERSITY, Defendant. /

Plaintiff Piotr Gardias purports to move for an order requiring defendant to provide a more definite statement with respect to certain assertions made in its Case Management Statement. A motion such as this may only be directed to a "pleading," see Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(e), and a Case Management Statement is not a pleading. Accordingly, plaintiff's motion is DENIED.1 SO ORDERED. Dated: September 27, 2010 HOWARD R. LLOYD

UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE

Plaintiff also has filed a purported "Answer" to defendant's Case Management Statement. This is also improper, and the court will disregard it as such. The court deplores the plaintiff's personal attacks on the integrity of defense counsel.
