UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
MIDDLE DISTRICT OF FLORIDA
FORT MYERS DIVISION
MALIBU MEDIA, LLC,
Plaintiff,
v.

Case No: 2:13-cv-836-FtM-29CM

JOHN DOE,
Defendant.
ORDER
Before the Court is Plaintiff's First Motion for Extension of Time within Which
It Has to Serve Defendant with a Summons and Complaint (“Motion”) (Doc. 14), filed
on March 27, 2014. Due to the pending motion to quash the third party subpoena in
this case, Plaintiff requests an additional thirty (30) days during which to serve
Defendant with a Summons and Complaint.

The Motion does not include a

certification pursuant to Middle District of Florida Local Rule 3.01(g) indicating
whether Defendant opposes the requested relief.
The Court recognizes that Defendant’s true identify is unknown at this stage
in the litigation; however, Defendant has appeared through counsel for the limited
purposes of attempting to quash the subpoena and seeking a protective order. The
Motion must therefore be denied without prejudice to refiling after the parties have
met and conferred in accordance with the Local Rules.

ACCORDINGLY, it is hereby
ORDERED:
Plaintiff's First Motion for Extension of Time within Which It Has to Serve
Defendant with a Summons and Complaint (Doc. 14) is DENIED WITHOUT
PREJUDICE.
DONE and ORDERED in Fort Myers, Florida on this 31st day of March, 2014.
