UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MARK GOINGS,

Plaintiff(s), No. C 08-2544 PJH

v. NOTICE

SGT. ELLIOT, et al.,

Defendant(s).

_______________________________/

The court has received Mr. Kallis’ letter in which he further explains the divergence

of opinion as to the Local Rule’s briefing deadlines for summary judgment motions. The

court acknowledges that Mr. Kallis’ interpretation appears to be correct as the rule currently

reads. Coincidentally, this matter was brought to the court’s attention, as Chair of the

Northern District’s Rules Committee, via another unrelated inquiry on the same day of the

hearing. The source of the problem has been identified and is being rectified by the Rules

Committee. The court thanks Mr. Kallis for further highlighting the issue, and of course, the

opposition brief will NOT be stricken as untimely in light of the lack of clarity in our Local

Rules.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
