Case No. 2:11-cv-01432-GMN-GWF
ORDER
Motion to Strike Plaintiff’s
Offer for Early Settlement (#36)

15
16

This matter comes before the Court on Defendant’s Motion to Strike Plaintiff’s Offer for Early

17

Settlement (#36), filed on April 2, 2012. On March 12, 2012, Plaintiff filed with the Court a Notice of

18

Offer of Early Settlement (#34). Defendants now seek to strike that document from the docket as an

19

irrelevant or immaterial pleading. A settlement offer should be served upon the opposing party, not

20

filed with the Court. Pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(f), the Court will strike Plaintiff’s Offer for Early

21

Settlement as improper. Accordingly,

22

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Defendant’s Motion to Strike Plaintiff’s Offer for Early

23

Settlement (#36) is granted. The Clerk of Court shall strike Plaintiff’s Notice of Offer of Early

24

Settlement (#34) from the docket.

25

DATED this 3rd day of April, 2012.
