UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

NATIONAL RAILROAD PASSENGER 

CORPORATION,

Plaintiff,

v.

YOUNG’S COMMERCIAL TRANSFER, 

INC., a corporation, and RIGOBERTO 

FERNANDEZ JIMENEZ, an individual, 

d/b/a JIMENEZ TRUCKING,

Defendants.

No. 1:13-cv-01506-DAD-EPG

ORDER GRANTING LEAVE TO FILE A 

MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND 

AUTHORITIES IN EXCESS OF TWENTY 

PAGES

(Doc. 60.)

On February 23, 2016, defendants National Railroad Passenger Corporation, Barbara Neu, 

and BNSF Railway Company, filed a request to be allowed to submit a memorandum of points 

and authorities in support of their motion for summary judgment that is in excess of twenty pages. 

(Doc. 60.) 

At this time, the undersigned does not have a standing order establishing precise page 

limits for filed motions. There is no page limit established by the Federal Rules of Civil 

Procedure or by the Eastern District of California Local Rules. Defendants reference a rule in the 

Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure that limits motions to twenty pages. See Fed. R. App. P. 

27(d)(2). However, those rules do not apply to the present case.
