Case No. 2:11-cv-01906-LRH-CWH
ORDER

12
This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff’s “Motion for Notice on Federal Questions and
13
Damages: ‘Title 26 Issues’ - Mandate for Positive Law Codification (2 U.S.C. 285b) Public Law
14
93-544; As Affects Discovery; Local Rule 26-1(e)(1) on ‘26 CFR 301.7433-1(a); 25 USC 7430et
15
seq.’” (#20), filed September 25, 2012. Plaintiff cites Local Rule 26-1(e)(1), which describes how
16
to calculate the discovery cut-off date. The Court notes that discovery closed on September 30,
17
2012. See Scheduling Order #16. It is unclear from Plaintiff’s motion whether she is requesting
18
that discovery be re-opened, but her motion does not comply with Local Rule 26-4 to warrant an
19
extension of the discovery period. Additionally, it appears as though Plaintiff disagrees with the
20
Order granting in part and denying in part Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss (#17). However, the
21
motion does not request reconsideration. Based on the foregoing and good cause appearing
22
therefore,
23
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiff’s Motion for Notice on Federal Questions and
24
Damages (#20) is denied.
25
DATED this 2nd day of October, 2012.
