ORDER
______________________________________________________________________________
This matter arises on a letter filed by defendant John Henry on January 23, 2012 [Doc.
#55] (the “Letter”). The Letter is STRICKEN.
The Letter is addressed to me, and Mr. Henry does not certify that it has been served on
counsel for the plaintiffs. The local rules of this Court prohibit ex parte communication with
judicial officers:
In the absence of previous authorization, no attorney or party to
any proceeding shall send letters, pleadings or other papers or
copies directly to a judicial officer. Unless otherwise instructed, all
matters to be called to a judicial officer’s attention shall be
submitted through the clerk, with copies served on all other parties
or their attorneys.
D.C.COLO.LCivR 77.2.
In addition, copies of papers filed in this court must be served on counsel for all other
parties (or directly on any party acting pro se) in compliance with Fed. R. Civ. P. 5. Rule 5
provides that all pleadings filed after the original complaint and all written motions, notices,
demands, or any similar paper must be served on every party. Fed. R. Civ. P. 5(a). “If a party is
represented by an attorney, service under this rule must be made on the attorney . . . .” Fed. R.
Civ. P. 5(b). Service upon other parties may be by mail. Id. Proof that service has been made is
provided by a certificate of service. Id. at 5(d). This certificate should be filed along with the
original papers and should show the day and manner of service. Id.
IT IS ORDERED:
1. The Letter is STRICKEN; and
2. All papers shall be served on counsel for the plaintiffs in accordance with Rule 5 and
shall be accompanied by a proper Certificate of Service.
Dated July 19, 2012.
