And all related matters

10
On August 19, 2016, Defendant filed his Second Motion in Limine.1 The document

11
12

suffers from formatting problems. First, Local Rule IA 10-1(a)(1) states that “Lines of text must

13

be numbered consecutively beginning with 1 on the left margin of each page with no more than

14

28 lines per page.” In my June 17, 2016, order, I reminded the parties that the Local Rules have

15

been recently amended and that “any motion in limine must comply with the local rules as

16

amended.”2 Defendant’s motion was not submitted on lined pleading paper, thus violating Local

17

Rule IA 10-1(a)(1). Second, it appears that some formatting error occurred and has caused

18

various symbols to be replaced by others. For example, apostrophes have been replaced with

19

equal signs, and quotation marks have been replaced by the @ symbol. Finally, the case caption

20

incorrectly reflects this case as bearing the case number 2:13-cv-0076-GMN-JNK, when the

21

correct case number is 2:13-cv-0076-JAD-NJK.
To allow the defendant the opportunity to resolve these problems with this filing, and

22
23

exercising my inherent power to control this docket, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that

24

Defendant’s Second Motion in Limine [ECF No. 160] is DENIED without prejudice to its
