MINUTES OF THE COURT
November 29, 2018

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 “Answer to Defendants’ Answer to the Plaintiff’s Civil
Complaint” (ECF No. 23).
Plaintiff’s Answer to Defendants’ Answer to Plaintiff’s Civil Complaint (ECF No. 23) is not
a pleading authorized by Fed. R. Civ. P. 7. A “reply to an answer” is permitted only if the court
orders one. (Id. at (a)(7).) The court has not done so and therefore Plaintiff’s “Answer to
Defendants’ Answer to the Plaintiff’s Civil Complaint” (ECF No. 23) is a fugitive document.
Plaintiff’s “Answer to Defendants’ Answer to the Plaintiff’s Civil Complaint” (ECF No. 23)
shall be STRICKEN.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
DEBRA K. KEMPI, CLERK
