JASON LEE RICKERT,
Plaintiff,
v.
REVADA FARNSWORTH, R.N., Boulder County Jail Badge #1524,
CHERI HARVEY, R.N., Boulder county Jail Badge #1581,

ORDER
______________________________________________________________________________
This matter arises on Defendants’ Motion to Strike Plaintiff’s Request for Admissions
[Doc. #83, filed 11/04/2013] (the “Motion to Strike”). The Motion to Strike is GRANTED IN
PART and DENIED IN PART.
The defendants request an order striking as untimely “Plaintiff’s First Set of Admission’s
Requested from Defendants.” The plaintiff filed the Request for Admissions with the court on
October 28, 2013 [Doc. #80]. The Request for Admissions contains a Certificate of Service
which states that the plaintiff served the Request for Admissions on defense counsel on October
22, 2013. The Discovery Cut-Off date was October 18, 2013.1 Scheduling Order [Doc. #59].
1
On September 24, 2013, the plaintiff sought an extension of the Discovery Cut-Off
because he was experiencing difficulty obtaining medical records from non parties [doc. #68]. I
denied the plaintiff’s request because he failed to show good cause [Doc. #72].
The Request for Admissions is stricken from the court’s record because discovery
materials shall not be filed with the court. Fed. R. Civ. P. 5(d). Insofar as the defendants seek
relief based on the untimeliness of the Request for Admissions, the Motion is DENIED. The
defendants may address the untimeliness issue through objections to the Request for Admissions
or through a request for a protective order.
IT IS ORDERED:
(1) The Motion [Doc. #83] is GRANTED insofar as it seeks an order striking plaintiff’s
Request for Admissions from the court record and DENIED to the extent it seeks any other
relief; and
(2) The plaintiff’s Request for Admissions [Doc. #80] is STRICKEN.
Dated December 9, 2013.
BY THE COURT:
s/ Boyd N. Boland
United States Magistrate Judge
