IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO
Civil Action No. 15-cv-00544-WYD
MICHAEL DEMPSEY,
Plaintiff,
v.
J&A SERVICES, LLC, JAMES WHITELY,
AND ANN MARIE WHITELY,
Defendants.
_____________________________________________________________________
ORDER
_____________________________________________________________________
THIS MATTER is before the Court on the Plaintiff’s Motion to Appoint Local
Magistrate Judge (ECF No. 10), filed April 2, 2015. In this motion, the Plaintiff requests
the appointment of a Magistrate Judge located in Grand Junction, Colorado, which is
where the parties reside. The Plaintiff explains that it would be more convenient, less
burdensome, and less expensive for the parties to have status conferences and
discovery related hearings in Grand Junction, Colorado.
The Plaintiff further explains that pursuant to D.C.COLO.LCivR 7.1(a), Plaintiff’s
counsel was not able to confer with the attorney for the Defendants, as no attorney had
been entered for the Defendants as of April 2, 2015. On April 14, 2015, Defendants’
counsel, Michael Santo, filed a motion (ECF No. 11) in this case seeking an extension of
time to file an answer to the Plaintiff’s complaint. Since the Plaintiff’s motion (ECF No.
10) remains pending and the Defendant is now represented by counsel, the parties shall
confer pursuant to D.C.COLO.LCivR 7.1(a) in regard to the Plaintiff’s motion. The

Plaintiff shall then file an updated D.C.COLO.LCivR 7.1(a) certification that complies with
the local rule. Accordingly, it is
ORDERED that the parties shall confer pursuant to D.C.COLO.LCivR 7.1(a) in
regard to the Plaintiff’s Motion to Appoint Local Magistrate Judge (ECF No. 10) and that
the Plaintiff shall then file an updated D.C.COLO.LCivR 7.1(a) certification that complies
with the local rule on or before Thursday, May 21, 2015.
Dated: May 13, 2015.
