ORDER IMPOSING SANCTIONS

On May 10, 2007, I issued an order to show cause why

plaintiff should not be sanctioned for failing to comply with

Civil Local Rule 37-2. Argument on the order was heard on May

16, 2007. After considering plaintiff’s written and verbal

responses to my order, I conclude that the failure to abide by

Rule 37-2 is not excusable. For the reasons stated on the

record, and pursuant to my authority under Civil Local Rule 1-

4 and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 16(f), IT IS ORDERED

that in the event plaintiff seeks to recover attorneys fees

and costs expended in litigating this action, he shall be

barred from recovering fees or costs for work done in
