MINUTES OF THE COURT
June 7, 2017

PRESENT: THE HONORABLE WILLIAM G. COBB, U.S. MAGISTRATE JUDGE
DEPUTY CLERK:

KATIE LYNN OGDEN REPORTER: NONE APPEARING

COUNSEL FOR PLAINTIFF(S): NONE APPEARING
COUNSEL FOR DEFENDANT(S): NONE APPEARING
MINUTE ORDER IN CHAMBERS:
Before the court is Plaintiff’s Motion for Subpoena on Defendant Pinkham (ECF No. 82).
Defendants have opposed the motion (ECF No. 88).
Plaintiff’s motion (ECF No. 82) is predicated on the fact that the summons and complaint
were served on Defendant Pinkham on November 18, 2016 (ECF No. 45), and Defendant Pinkham
has failed to file a responsive pleading to Plaintiff’s complaint. The issuance of a subpoena would
not cure the Defendant’s apparent failure to respond to the complaint.
Plaintiff is advised that, in accordance with Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(a), the proper procedure is to
file a motion for default.
Therefore, Plaintiff’s Motion for Subpoena on Defendant Pinkham (ECF No. 82) is
DENIED.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
