reconsideration. Civil L.R. 7-9(b) specifies the form and content of such a motion for leave. The

court will consider I.C. System's motion for reconsideration even though I.C. Systems has not

followed the proper procedure under the Local Rules.

SAN JOSE DIVISION

SUSANNE M. PALMER,

No. C-04-03237 RMW

ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANT I.C.

SYSTEMS, INC., LEAVE TO FILE MOTION

FOR RECONSIDERATION AND SETTING

BRIEFING SCHEDULE

[Re Docket No. 124]

On November 8, 2005, this court issued an order which, inter alia, granted plaintiff Susanne

Palmer summary judgment against I.C. Systems, Inc., on her claim that I.C. Systems failed to report

a debt as disputed, in violation of 15 U.S.C. § 1692e(8). I.C. Systems has moved for reconsideration

of that order,1

 claiming that (1) this court erroneously determined that Palmer's complaint could be

read to allege a claim for failing to report a debt as disputed, in violation of 15 U.S.C. § 1692e(8),

(2) the evidence submitted was insufficient to grant Palmer summary judgment on her claim for

failing to report a debt as disputed, and (3) I.C. Systems should be granted leave to present a defense

under 15 U.S.C. § 1692k(c). As it appears I.C. Systems' arguments have substantial merit

(particularly the first two), the court grants I.C. Systems leave to file a motion for reconsideration

(which it has already done). Palmer may file an opposition to I.C. System's motion within ten days

of the date of this order, at which time the matter will be deemed submitted absent further order of

the court.
