(Mtn for Admissions - Dkt. #56)

13

This matter is before the court on Plaintiff Bobby Lee Montgomery’s First Request for

14

Admissions to Defendants (Dkt. #56) filed March 17, 2014, which was docketed as a motion.

15

Plaintiff is a former prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in this civil rights action

16

arising under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The filing does not ask the court to enter any sort of relief; rather, it is

17

a written discovery request under Rule 33 to Defendants. Discovery requests are served on counsel for

18

represented parties, and should not be filed with the court. Local Rule of Civil Practice 26-8 provides

19

that unless otherwise ordered by the court, written discovery shall not be filed with the court. LR 26-8.

20

Accordingly,

21

IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiff’s Motion for Admissions (Dkt. #56) be STRICKEN.

22

Dated this 18th day of March, 2014.
