 v.

HARTFORD FIRE INSURANCE COMPANY,

et al.,

Defendants.

 /

No. C-05-4717 MMC

ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR

DEFAULT JUDGMENT

On August 17, 2006, defendant Hartford Fire Insurance Company (“Hartford”)

electronically filed a motion for default judgment against third party defendants Alexander

Solovyev and MTL Worldwide Agency, Inc. Hartford has violated General Order 45 and the

Court’s standing orders, however, by failing to deliver to the Clerk’s Office “no later than

noon on the business day following the day that the papers are filed electronically, one

paper copy of each document that is filed electronically . . . marked ‘Chambers Copy’ and

. . . clearly marked with the judge’s name, case number, and ‘Chambers Copy-Do Not

File.’” See General Order 45 § VII.G; see also Standing Orders For Civil Cases Assigned to

The Honorable Maxine M. Chesney ¶ 2.

In addition, Hartford has violated the Civil Local Rules by failing to submit a

memorandum of points and authorities containing reference to pertinent authority, see Civil

L.R. 7-4(a), and failing to submit a proposed default judgment, see Civil L.R. 7-2(c).

Accordingly, the motion for default judgment is hereby DENIED without prejudice.
