FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

 Local Rule 230(l) provides: “All motions, except motions to dismiss for lack of prosecution, 

filed in actions wherein one party is incarcerated and proceeding in propria persona, shall be 

submitted upon the record without oral argument unless otherwise ordered by the Court. Such 

motions need not be noticed on the motion calendar. Opposition, if any, to the granting of the 

motion shall be served and filed by the responding party not more than twenty-one (21), days 

after the date of service of the motion. A responding party who has no opposition to the granting 

of the motion shall serve and file a statement to that effect, specifically designating the motion in 

question. Failure of the responding party to file an opposition or to file a statement of no 

opposition may be deemed a waiver of any opposition to the granting of the motion and may 

result in the imposition of sanctions. The moving party may, not more than seven (7) days after 

the opposition has been filed in CM/ECF, serve and file a reply to the opposition. All such 

motions will be deemed submitted when the time to reply has expired.”
