CONTINUING CASE

MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE

[re: document no. 14 ]

Defendant JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., moves to dismiss all ten claims for relief in

Plaintiffs’ first amended complaint. Plaintiffs allege violations of the Truth in Lending Act, 15

U.S.C. § 1601 et seq. and related claims. The Court concludes that this motion is appropriate for

determination without oral argument and will vacate the hearing date of January 8, 2010. See

Civ. L.R. 7-1(b).

Under this Court’s Civil Local Rules, Plaintiffs’ opposition was due at least twenty-one

days before the noticed hearing date of January 8, 2010, or by December 18, 2010. Plaintiffs’

opposition papers were filed twelve days late, on December 30, 2009. Plaintiffs did not obtain

leave of court to file late, nor do they offer any explanation for the late filing. Accordingly, the

Court will strike the opposition as untimely. The Court notes that on the same date that Plaintiffs

filed the opposition, they also filed a notice of voluntary dismissal with respect to certain claims. 

Because the instant motion appears well-taken and is unopposed, and in light of Plaintiffs’

concession regarding certain of the claims, the motion to dismiss will be granted with leave to

amend. Any amended pleading shall be filed within twenty (20) days after the date of this order.
