KELLY BUCZEK
Defendants.

ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFF’S MOTION TO NOTIFY COURT OF
STATUS OF PLAINTIFF’S CASE REGARDING DISCOVERY (DE 56)
The Court is in receipt of Plaintiff’s above titled motion, in which he asks
that it “consider his Motion/Brief that he submitted on September 18, 2017 in
Opposition to Defendants’ Motion/Brief for Summary Judgment.” (DE 56 at 1-2;
referring to DE 50 and DE 51, its supporting exhibits.) The instant motion is
unopposed and is GRANTED, as the Court has indeed read and considered
Plaintiff’s summary judgment response and brief, despite the fact that it is 93 pages
long, far in excess of the 25 pages permitted by the rules. See E.D. Mich. L.R.

7.1(d)(3)(A). The Court has also considered Plaintiff’s 270 pages of exhibits. (DE
51.) Thus, Plaintiff’s fear that he would have to “redraft/duplicate another Brief”
in response to the summary judgment motion is unfounded. (DE 56 at 5.)
However, Plaintiff is forewarned that future filings which do not strictly adhere to
this Court’s page limitations will be stricken.
