v.

Defendants. 

No. 2:15-cv-00967-KJM-CKD 

ORDER 

On May 5, 2015, the court issued a standing order. ECF No. 3-1. In the order, the 

parties were directed to engage in a meet and confer prior to filing a motion. Id. The meet and 

confer directive was designed to have the parties discuss thoroughly the substance of the 

contemplated motion and any potential resolution. ECF No. 3-1 at 3. After meeting and 

confering, if a party still desired to file a motion, that party was directed to file a notice of motion 

containing “a certification by counsel filing the motion that meet and confer efforts have been 

exhausted, with a brief summary of meet and confer efforts.” Id.

On August 28, 2015, defendants filed a motion to dismiss plaintiff’s third amended 

complaint. ECF No. 23. Defendants, however, failed to file a notice of motion containing a 

certification indicating that meet and confer efforts have been exhausted. Thus, defendants did 

not comply with the court’s standing order. 

Accordingly, defendants’ counsel is hereby ORDERED, within seven (7) days of 

entry of this order, to show cause why they should not be sanctioned in the amount of $250 for 

failure to comply with this court’s order. 

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

DATED: October 15, 2015.
