No. CV-06-286-PHX-LOA

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

On October 17, 2006 and February 7, 2007, this Court ordered that "[a]ll

pleadings filed hereinafter shall contain the following number and initials: No.

CV-06-286-PHX-LOA." (docket # 21 and # 40 ) Judge Carroll’s Order of September 20,

2006 also ordered that all further documents filed contain the new case number. (docket #

13) Despite three orders, defense counsel continues to file pleadings with the incorrect case

number. See docket # 56 and # 67.

Placing the appropriate case number and initials on pleadings is not a petty

requirement. Filing documents containing the wrong number and initials creates additional

work for the overburdened clerks and may lead to misfilings of documents and unnecessary

delays in the administration of justice. The Court is at a loss what more a district court must

do for Phoenix counsel, employed by a reputable law firm, to comply with three express

orders and LRCiv 7.1(a)(3).
