MINUTES OF THE COURT

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 a letter from Plaintiff Eric Mesi requesting the court “keep [his] new
address redacted . . . .” (ECF No. 19.) Plaintiff’s letter is an ex parte communication which is
prohibited (except under certain circumstances, none of which is applicable). See, LR IA 7-2(b).
To the extent Plaintiff’s request is an authorized submission, the request is denied.
LR IA 10-2 requires a party’s name, address, phone number and email address to be provided on
every filing. Mr. Mesi presents no legitimate reason why the court should not follow LR IA 10-2.
LR 26-8 prohibits discovery from being filed with the court. Discovery responses are to be
served on the party making the discovery request. If Plaintiff’s address were to be redacted,
Defendants could not serve discovery upon Plaintiffs nor could Defendants know where to serve any
responses to discovery which Plaintiffs might initiate.
