UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

CARLTON SALVATIERRA TIAMSON,

Plaintiff,

v.

EQUIFAX, INC,

Defendant.

Case No. 19-cv-08430-SVK 

ORDER DENYING WITHOUT 

PREJUDICE PLAINTIFF'S MOTION 

FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT AS 

PREMATURE

Re: Dkt. No. 4

On December 27, 2019, Plaintiff Carlton Salvatierra Tiamson filed the complaint in this 

action. Dkt. 1. On the same date, Plaintiff filed a motion for summary judgment. Dkt. 4. As of 

the date of this order, Plaintiff has not served the complaint on Defendant Equifax, Inc., and 

Defendant has not yet appeared. Accordingly, the Court DENIES Plaintiff’s motion for summary 

Judgment as premature, without prejudice to Plaintiff filing a motion for summary judgment at an 

appropriate time later in the case. The Court anticipates that at the Initial Case Management 

Conference, currently scheduled for March 31, 2020, it will set a schedule for this case, including 

a deadline for the parties to file dispositive motions. The parties are advised that absent good 

cause, each party will be limited to one summary judgment motion in the case.

SO ORDERED.

Dated: January 27, 2020
