Defendant Jackie Allen is proceeding in this case pro se, and has filed a motion making

17

factual assertions and seeking a ruling in this case. Docket No. 10. That motion is hereby DENIED

18

as premature. Ms. Allen is instructed that the first step in most cases is for the defendants to respond

19

to the complaint, usually by way of filing an answer. Ms. Allen has not yet filed an answer in this

20

case. Once that has been done, the Court may then provide a period by which the parties can obtain

21

discovery to support their factual contentions in motions for summary judgment or at trial. See Local

22

Rule 22-1 (outlining procedure for entering a scheduling order in interpleader actions).
