ORDER CLARIFYING ORDER ON MOTIONS
The court earlier entered an order on the plaintiff’s motions which inadvertently did not
include the court’s full intended ruling on the motion for a face-to-face- meeting and for a hearing

the ruling on the motion for hearing.

The plaintiff has also requested a face-to-face meeting as his preferred method of
communicating with the court and requested an evidentiary hearing on the motion to dismiss.
Though the plaintiff is proceeding pro se, he is required to be aware of and comply with the rules
of the court. Any motions and responses before the court will be in writing. L.U.Civ 7. The court
rarely holds in-person conferences and will do so in lieu of a normal motion practice. The court
also does not usually hold oral argument in deciding motions and will not hold an evidentiary
hearing in connection with a motion to dismiss. The court denies the motion for oral argument on
