This matter is before the court on plaintiffs’ failure to file a Certificate as to Interested
Parties as required by LR 7.1-1. The complaint in this matter was filed in state court and removed
(ECF No. 1) to federal district court May 11, 2017. Defendant filed an Answer (ECF No. 5) May
12, 2017. LR 7.1-1(a) requires, unless otherwise ordered, that in all cases (except habeas corpus
cases) counsel for private parties shall, upon entering a case, identify in the disclosure statement
required by Fed. R. Civ. P. 7.1 all persons, associations of persons, firms, partnerships or
corporations (including parent corporations) which have a direct, pecuniary interest in the outcome
of the case. LR 7.1-1(b) further states that if there are no known interested parties other than those
participating in the case, a statement to that effect must be filed. Additionally, LR 7.1-1(c) requires
a party to promptly file a supplemental certification upon any change in the information that this
rule requires. To date, Plaintiffs have failed to comply. Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED Plaintiffs shall file their certificate of interested parties, which fully
complies with LR 7.1-1 no later than June 16, 2017. Failure to comply may result in the issuance
of an order to show cause why sanctions should not be imposed.
DATED this 2nd day of June, 2017.
