(JFLC1)

**E-Filed 9/10/08**

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SAN JOSE DIVISION

ROMULO RIMANDO, 

 Plaintiff,

 v.

ALUM ROCK UNION ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

DISTRICT and MARIBEL GUIZAR-MAITA,

individually,

 Defendants.

Case Number C 08-01874 JF (RS)

ORDER GRANTING IN PART 1

PLAINTIFF’S MOTION FOR

ADMINISTRATIVE RELIEF

[re: doc. no. 16]

Plaintiff Romulo Rimando seeks the Court’s permission to file his opposition to

Defendants’ motion to dismiss after the due date of August 29, 2008. Plaintiff’s supporting

papers state that timely filing was prevented by Hurricane Gustav. Plaintiff was able to file the

present motion on September 1, 2008 and Defendants do not oppose Plaintiff’s late filing. 

However, in addition to filing late Plaintiff exceeded the 25 page limit for his opposition

papers as set forth in Civ. L. R. 7-2(b). Apparently, Plaintiff’s counsel was confused as to the

required font size, believing that the local rules required motions to be submitted in fourteenpoint font. Defendants note that twelve-point font is allowed under Civ. L. R. 3-4(c)(2), and that

as originally submitted, Plaintiff’s 40 page opposition violated Civ. L. R. 7-2(b). 

Plaintiff now has filed a twelve-point font version of the document submitted on

September 1, 2008. This document complies with the page limits of Civ. L. R. 7-2(b). In

addition, Defendants have filed a reply to Plaintiff’s opposition. The briefing for the hearing

scheduled for September 19, 2008 thus is complete. Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED

that Plaintiff’s motion for administrative relief is GRANTED as to the late filing, and DENIED

AS MOOT regarding the page limit.

DATED: September 10, 2008
