IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO
Civil Action No. 14-cv-03236-MEH
MELEAHA R. GLAPION,
Plaintiff,
v.
SALLY JEWELL, Secretary, U.S. Department of the Interior,
Defendant.

MINUTE ORDER
Entered by Michael E. Hegarty, United States Magistrate Judge, on January 28, 2016.
Before the Court are Plaintiff’s Motion for Sanctions [filed January 27, 2016; docket #56]
and [Amended] Motion for Sanctions [filed January 27, 2016; docket #57]. In both motions,
Plaintiff seeks “an order imposing sanctions against Defendant for spoliation of evidence and abuses
of discovery” then, in her prayer for relief, states simply that the Court’s order requiring a response
to Defendant’s motion for summary judgment is “unjust, beyond Plaintiff’s control, ability, and good
faith.” Plaintiff fails to identify any “sanction” she asks the Court to impose upon the Defendant and
fails to explain how any “discovery abuse” by the Defendant causes the Court’s order to file a
response to the motion for summary judgment to become “unjust.” Because the Court cannot
discern the Plaintiff’s requested relief here, the motions are denied without prejudice.
