ORDER
[Counter Motion for Rule 11 Sanctions #68 and

THE VIRGINIA TRUST, et al.,
Defendants.

11
12

Reviewing docket number 68, which was duplicated by the clerk as docket number 70, for

13

CM/ECF purposes pursuant to Special Order 109, it appears that counsel for Sheree Williams has failed

14

to comply with the “Safe Harbor” provisions of Fed. R. Civ. P. 11(c)(2). All of the authorities cited in

15

support of the Countermotion for Rule 11 Sanctions predate December 1, 1993, the date on which these

16

Safe Harbor provisions took effect.

17

Accordingly,

18

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Sheree Williams’ Counter Motion for Rule 11 Sanctions (#70)
