MINUTE ORDER

ENTERED BY MAGISTRATE JUDGE KRISTEN L. MIX
This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff’s Motion to Change Case Caption
[#60] (the “Motion”).
As an initial matter, the Motion does not comply with
D.C.COLO.LCivR 7.1(a), which provides as follows:
1

Before filing a motion, counsel for the moving party or an unrepresented
party shall confer or make reasonable good faith efforts to confer with any
opposing counsel or unrepresented party to resolve any disputed matter. The
moving party shall describe in the motion, or in a certificate attached to the
motion, the specific efforts to fulfill this duty.
D.C.COLO.LCivR 7.1(b) excepts certain motions from this requirement, however, the
Motion does not fall within any of those exceptions. The Motion is subject to denial on this
basis alone. Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Motion [#60] is DENIED without prejudice.
Dated: October 9, 2014

“[#60]” is an example of the convention I use to identify the docket number assigned to
a specific paper by the Court’s case management and electronic case filing system (CM/ECF). I
use this convention throughout this Minute Order.
