UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
DISTRICT OF MINNESOTA

United States of America,
Plaintiff,

Civ. No. 11-62 (RHK/JJK)
ORDER

v.
Joanna Bame, et al,
Defendants.

This matter is before the Court sua sponte.
The United States filed suit against Joanna Bame and the several other Defendants
on January 10, 2011, alleging fraudulent conveyance, money had and received, and
unjust enrichment. On May 9, 2012, Defendants filed a Motion for Summary Judgment
(Doc. No. 60), noticing its Motion for a hearing on June 20, 2012. On May 18, 2012, the
United States filed its own Motion for Summary Judgment (Doc. No. 66), noticing its
Motion for a hearing on June 29, 2012. The Court believes these dispositive Motions
should not be separately briefed and should be treated as cross-motions and heard
together.
Based on the foregoing, and all the files, records, and proceedings herein, IT IS
ORDERED:
1.

The hearing on Defendant’s Motion for Summary Judgment, currently

scheduled for June 20, 2012, is CONTINUED to June 29, 2012, at 8:00 a.m. in

Courtroom 7A, Warren E. Burger Federal Building and United States Courthouse, 316 N.
Robert Street, St. Paul, Minnesota;
2.

The following briefing schedule shall apply to the parties’ Motions:

responsive briefs shall be served and filed no later than June 8, 2012. No replies—
whether by memorandum, affidavit, letter, or otherwise—will be permitted absent further
Order of the Court; and
3.

The Parties’ briefs shall conform to the word limitations provided in Local

Rule 7.1(d)—that is, the total number of words in each party’s briefs (combined) shall not
exceed 12,000.

Date: May 22, 2012
