UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

CLARK FRATUS, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

v.

COUNTY OF CONTRA COSTA, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 14-cv-05533-MEJ 

ORDER RE: AMENDED OPPOSITION 

TO DEFENDANTS’ MOTION FOR 

SUMMARY JUDGMENT

Re: Dkt. No. 75

Pending before the Court is Defendants’ Motion for Summary Judgment. Dkt. No. 48. 

Briefing in this matter has been complete since Defendants filed their Reply on April 28, 2016, 

and the matter is set for a hearing on July 14, 2016. However, on May 22, 2016, Plaintiffs filed an 

Amended Opposition to Defendants’ Motion. Dkt. No. 75. Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 7-3(d), 

“Once a reply is filed, no additional memoranda, papers or letters may be filed without prior Court 

approval,” except in limited circumstances not applicable here. As Plaintiffs did not seek leave to 

file an amended opposition, the Court would normally order it stricken from the record. Since 

Plaintiffs represent themselves in this matter and the hearing is seven weeks away, thus giving 

Defendants ample time to amend their reply, the Court shall permit Plaintiffs to file their amended 

opposition. Plaintiffs are hereby advised that any future filings that do not comply with the federal

and local rules shall be stricken from the record. Defendants shall file an amended reply by June 

9, 2016.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: May 23, 2016
