UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

HAKEIM EL BEY, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

SELECT PORTFOLIO SERVICES, INC., 

Defendant. 

No. 2:16-cv-2248 MCE GGH PS 

ORDER 

Plaintiff is proceeding in this action pro se and has paid the filing fee. This proceeding 

was referred to this court by Local Rule 302(21), pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). 

On December 19, 2016, plaintiff filed a “request for summary judgment.” (ECF No. 18.) 

Plaintiff’s motion is defectively noticed. See E. D. Local Rule 230(b). Even if the motion were 

properly noticed, it is premature. Two motions to dismiss are currently submitted and pending 

review by the court. Plaintiff is referred to Fed. R. Civ. P. 56 and E.D. Local Rule 260 for 

information regarding the timing and procedure for filing a summary judgment motion. 

Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that: plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment, filed 

December 19, 2016 (ECF No. 18), is vacated without prejudice to its refiling, if necessary, after 

the adjudication of the motions to dismiss. 

Dated: December 24, 2016
