THEIR MOTION FOR SUMMARY 

JUDGMENT; AND DIRECTING 

DEFENDANTS TO FILE A 

CORRECTED MEMORANDUM ON 

OR BEFORE JANUARY 4, 2019

The Court hereby STRIKES Defendants’ Memorandum of Points and Authorities in 

Support of their Motion for Summary Judgment (“Memorandum”) on the basis that the 

Memorandum violates the rules regarding use of footnotes set forth in this Court’s Standing Order 

Re Civil Cases. Defendants may file a Corrected Memorandum on or before January 4, 2019. 

Any footnotes contained in the Corrected Memorandum shall be no less than 12-point type and 

shall be double-spaced. Footnotes shall not be used to cite to legal authorities or evidence. All 

citations to legal authorities or evidence shall be in the body of the brief. Excessive footnotes will 

be disregarded.

Changes to Defendants’ Memorandum shall be limited to the clerical issues addressed in 

this order. Because the Corrected Memorandum will not contain any substantive changes, this 

order does not affect the briefing schedule for the summary judgment motion.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: December 14, 2018
