Case No. 2:14–cv–501–RFB–VCF

Plaintiff,

ORDER

ZACHARY TSAMBIS, et al.

7

Defendants.

This matter involves Exobox Technologies’ civil action against Zachary Tsambis, et al. for civil

10

conspiracy and intentional interference with Exobox’s business. Ten motions are before the court:
11

Tsambis’ five Motions to Compel (#51, #56, #59, #65, #69), two Motions for Discovery Sanctions (#49,
12
13

#57), two Motions for Contempt (#50, #58), and Motion to Appear Telephonically (#63).
Tsambis’ Motions to Compel, Motions for Discovery Sanctions, and Motions for Contempt seek

14
15

various forms of relief in connection with one issue: Exobox’s alleged failure to permit inspection of its

16

books and records. Tsambis’ motions are denied. Discovery is stayed, (see Doc. #47 at 3:3–4), and

17

Tsambis’ motions do not comply with the governing rules. See generally LR 26-7; FED. R. CIV. P. 26–

18

37. 1

19

The court recognizes that Tsambis is currently proceeding pro se. Nonetheless, he is required to

20

read and comply with the rules of court. Tsambis’ failure to follow the rules slows litigation and may

21

result in the court recommending that Tsambis be deemed a vexatious litigant. This will require Tsambis

22

to seek leave of court before filing documents with the court—both in this matter as well as any other

Tsambis’ Motion to Appear Telephonically is also denied. There is no hearing scheduled and,

3

therefore, no reason to seek leave of court to appear telephonically. If the court sets a hearing in the future,

4

Tsambis may file a request to appear telephonically at that time.

5

ACCORDINGLY, and for good cause shown,

6

IT IS ORDERED that Zachary Tsambis’ Motions (#49, #50, #51, #56, #57, #58, #59, #63, #65,

#69) are DENIED.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
DATED this 9th day of March, 2015.
