MINUTE ORDER
Entered by Michael E. Hegarty, United States Magistrate Judge, on August 17, 2011.
Before the Court is Plaintiffs’ “Notice of Petition and Petition for Pre-Litigation Discovery”
[filed August 12, 2011; docket #38]. The Court construes the document as Plaintiffs’ request for
production of discovery. The Plaintiffs need not seek relief from the Court, but rather may seek
discovery directly from the Defendants in accordance with Fed. R. Civ. P. 33, 34 and 36. Therefore,
the Plaintiffs’ request is denied. Furthermore, the Plaintiffs shall not file discovery requests with
the Court unless permitted under Fed. R. Civ. P. 5(d).
