The following Minute Order is made by direction of the Court, the Honorable
14 Thomas S. Zilly, United States District Judge:
(1)
Having reviewed plaintiff’s proposed amended judgment, docket no. 126, it
appears that the proposed amended judgment includes an abbreviated legal description
16 that encompasses boundary lines which are inconsistent with the full legal description of
the property encompassed by the Deed of Trust. See Proposed Amended Judgment, at 3;
17 see also Response, docket no. 129. The parties are DIRECTED to submit supplemental
briefing addressing this discrepancy on or before June 13, 2017. The parties’
18 supplemental briefs shall not exceed ten (10) pages.
15

(2)
In addition, the parties’ supplemental briefs should address whether, in light
of the notice informing the Court that defendant Todd Stafne is now deceased, see Notice
20 of Deceased Defendant, docket no. 130, substitution of Todd Stafne’s successor or
representative pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 25(a) is required prior to any ruling on
