Case No. 2:14-cv-01307-JCM-NJK
ORDER

16

It has come to the Court’s attention that numerous documents (including case-initiating

17

documents) have been filed in this case with a minor’s full name. Rule 5.2(a) of the Federal Rules of

18

Civil Procedure, as well as Special Order Nos. 108 and 109, require that only a minor’s initials be

19

provided. Accordingly, the Court hereby INSTRUCTS the Clerk’s Office to change the docket in this

20

case to remove the minor’s full name and replace it with initials. The Court further ORDERS the

21

parties to familiarize themselves the above directives, and to fully comply with them in the future. The

22

failure to comply may result in sanctions. See, e.g., Davis v. Clark County Sch. Dist., 2013 U.S. Dist.

23

Lexis 128937, *5 n.3 (D. Nev. Sept. 9, 2013) (sanctioning counsel for repeated failure to comply with

24

Court orders, including order to use only minor’s initials in filings).

25

IT IS SO ORDERED.
