UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

PUNAOFO TSUGITO TILEI

Plaintiff,

v.

T. WAN, et al.,

Defendants.

 /

CASE NO. 1:06-cv-00776-OWW-GSA PC

ORDER STRIKING DISCOVERY REQUEST

(Doc. 45)

On April 9, 2009, Plaintiff’s request for the production of documents directed to Defendant

Cooper was erroneously filed rather than returned to Plaintiff. Discovery requests are not to be filed

with the Court until and unless they are at issue, such as in a motion to compel. In this instance, on

July 17, 2009, Plaintiff subsequently filed a motion to compel Defendant Cooper to respond to his

request for the production of documents, but the motion to compel includes a copy of the discovery

request as Exhibit B, as is appropriate. 

Therefore, the request for the production of documents filed on April 9, 2009, is HEREBY

ORDERED STRICKEN from the record.

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

Dated: January 20, 2010 /s/ Gary S. Austin
