18

The court is informed that this morning, plaintiff’s counsel emailed correspondence to

19

court staff about a discovery dispute. That is not an appropriate way to communicate with the

20

court about such matters. Parties wishing to bring a discovery dispute to the court’s attention must

21

do so through a joint report prepared in compliance with the undersigned’s Standing Order re Civil

22

Discovery Disputes or, if the parties are unable to prepare a joint report (and for the court’s

23

evaluation of potential sanctions), through a unilateral report explaining why no joint report was

24

prepared in compliance with the undersigned’s standing order.

25

SO ORDERED.
