Montana,
Defendant.

Before the Court is Plaintiffs' "Motion for Attorneys' Fees and Expenses."

motion before this Court, including the requirement that the "text of the motion
must state that other parties have been contacted and state whether any party
objects to the motion," L.R. 7.1 (c)(1) and the requirement that any opposed

motion "must be accompanied by a brief in support filed at the same time as the
motion." L.R. 7.l(d)(l).
Plaintiffs having failed to comply with the aforementioned Local Rules,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiffs' "Motion for Attorneys' Fees and
Expenses" (Doc. 45) is DENIED without prejudice and with leave to refile.
