KENNETH A. HENDREN,

Petitioner,

vs.

BRIAN E. WILLIAMS, et al.,

Case No. 2:16-cv-00361-APG-PAL
ORDER

Respondents.
_____________________________/

14
15

In this habeas corpus action, on November 3, 2016, the respondents filed an answer (ECF

16

No. 14), along with several exhibits (ECF Nos. 15, 16, 17). The respondents also filed a motion for

17

waiver of certain local rules (ECF No. 18).

18

In their motion, respondents first request a waiver, for purposes of this case, of Local Rule

19

IA 10-3(e), which requires, with respect to the filing of exhibits, that the cover sheet for each exhibit

20

must include a descriptor of the exhibit. The court finds that, in this habeas corpus action, in light of

21

the number of exhibits respondents have filed, there is good cause to waive the requirement that the

22

cover sheet for each exhibit include a descriptor of the exhibit. That portion of respondents’ motion

23

will be granted. For purposes of this habeas corpus action, the court waives the requirement in

24

Local Rule IA 10-3(e) that the cover sheet for each filed exhibit must include a descriptor of the

25

exhibit.

26

Additionally, respondents request a waiver of Local Rule IA 10-3(i), which requires that,

1

when a party files more than 100 pages of exhibits, a copy of the exhibits must be submitted to the

2

court in paper (not electronic) form. This portion of respondents’ motion will be denied.

3

Respondents shall, for this case, submit the paper copy of their exhibits, pursuant to LR IA 10-3(i),

4

to the Office of the Clerk, at the court’s Reno location.

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that respondents’ Motion for Waiver (ECF No. 18) is
GRANTED IN PART AND DENIED IN PART, as described above.
