CASE NO. C13-5275 BHS-JRC

The District Court has referred this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 civil rights action to United States
Magistrate Judge J. Richard Creatura. The Court’s authority for the referral is 28 U.S.C. §
636(b)(1)(A) and (B), and local Magistrate Judge Rules MJR3 and MJR4.
Pro se defendant, Howard Welsh, has submitted a letter asking the Clerk of Court to
order the re-scheduling of his deposition (ECF No. 65). The Court does not conduct business by
letter. Any request for Court action must be in the form of a motion properly noted and served on
all parties. See, Fed. R. Civ. P. 7(b)(1). The Court orders that defendant’s letter will remain in
the file, but no action will be taken by the Court. All parties are reminded that the Court requires
that the parties meet and confer regarding discovery issues before bringing matters of this nature
