IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

SAN FRANCISCO DIVISION 

COMMITTEE FOR IMMIGRANT RIGHTS 

OF SONOMA COUNTY, et al., 

 Plaintiffs, 

 v. 

COUNTY OF SONOMA, et al., 

 Defendants. 

____________________________________/

No. C 08-4220 RS 

ORDER GRANTING LEAVE TO 

SEEK RECONSIDERATION 

Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 7-9, defendants County of Sonoma, Sheriff-Coroner William 

Cogbill and Deputy Sheriff Morris Eric Salkin (collectively, “County defendants”) request leave to 

file a motion for reconsideration of the Court’s Order re Motions to Dismiss, entered on March 10, 

2010 (Docket No. 164).1

 Without prejudice to the possibility of a subsequent conclusion that 

sufficient grounds for reconsideration do not exist, leave to file a motion for reconsideration is 

hereby granted. County defendants shall file their motion no later than April 1, 2010, with briefing 

 

1

 The County defendants style their request as an “ex parte motion.” Under Civil Local Rule 7-10, 

an ex parte motion is one filed without notice to opposing party, and is permissible only where 

authorized under the circumstances by a statute, Federal Rule, local rule, or Standing Order. The 

County defendants, however, e-filed their motion, with the result that it was automatically served on 

all parties who have appeared. The motion, therefore, was not made “ex parte” within the meaning 

of the Local Rules, despite its label.
