Case No. 2:16-cv-02884-JCM-NJK
SEALED EX PARTE ORDER

23

Plaintiff’s ex parte motion for maritime attachment and garnishment asks the Court, without

24

supporting authority, to direct the United States Marshal to execute any order for maritime

25

attachment and garnishment. Docket No. 3 at 4. Plaintiff’s ex parte motion to appoint a special

26

process server, however, states that “there is no need to require that service be effected by a U.S.

27

Marshal,” and asks the Court to appoint an employee of Plaintiff’s counsel’s firm as special process

28

server. Docket No. 5 at 2.

1

Accordingly, the Court hereby ORDERS Plaintiff to file, no later than December 22, 2016,

2

a clarification as to the specific relief it seeks, along with supporting authority. If Plaintiff does

3

indeed request the appointment of a special process server, Plaintiff shall identify a specific

4

individual to be appointed as special process server.

5

IT IS SO ORDERED.
