IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO
Senior District Judge Richard P. Matsch
Civil Action No. 11-cv-01530-RPM
TRADEBANK INTERNATIONAL FRANCHISING CORP. and
TRADEBANK INTERNATIONAL, INC.,
Plaintiffs,
v.
COMMUNITY CONNECT, LLC, D/B/A Community Connect Trade Assoc.,
WILLIAM RIGGS, and
ANNETTE RIGGS,
Defendants.
_____________________________________________________________________
ORDER ON DEFENDANTS MOTION FOR RULE 11 SANCTIONS
_____________________________________________________________________
On October 31, 2011, the third-party defendants John Davis, Todd Gerry, Valerie
Hale, David Hayden and Marcy Yaffee filed a Motion for Rule 11 Sanctions and the
response of the third-party plaintiffs was filed November 14, 2011. Because the filed
papers indicate the motion raises questions about the conduct of counsel for the
plaintiffs and the defendants and because a hearing would require the submission of
evidence that may affect this Court’s ability to proceed to adjudicate the merits of this
civil action, it is now
ORDERED that a ruling on the Motion for Rule 11 Sanctions will not be made
until there has been an adjudication of the merits of this civil action and an opportunity
for an evidentiary hearing after an adjudication.

DATED: November 23rd, 2011
BY THE COURT:
s/Richard P. Matsch
