Case No. 14-cv-02252-EDL 

ORDER SETTING HEARING AND 

BRIEFING SCHEDULE FOR 

DEFENDANT'S CLAIM FOR 

EXEMPTION

Re: Dkt. Nos. 28, 29

On December 24, 2014, this Court issued two writs of execution pursuant to which the 

United States Marshal Service levied and took possession of Defendant’s personal property on 

December 30, 2014. On January 16, 2015, Defendant, proceeding pro se, filed a claim for 

exemption and a request for a hearing, which he amended on January 22, 2015. Defendant’s claim 

for exemption states that he does not have a substantial ownership interest in some of the removed 

property and that Plaintiff failed to comply with statutory requirements for the writ of execution, 

although Defendant does not specify the factual basis for these claims or specifically identify the 

property he claims is exempted. Defendant requests a February 18, 2015, hearing date so as to 

allow him time to provide additional documentation and declarations. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 

3202(d), this Court sets this matter for a hearing on February 17, 2015, in Courtroom E, 15th 

Floor, San Francisco, at 11:00 a.m. Defendant is ordered to file a motion of no more than twentyfive (25) pages that explains the basis for his claim of exemption and specifically identifies what 

property he claims is exempted, along with supporting documentation and declarations, if any, by 

February 3, 2015. Plaintiff’s response of no more than twenty-five (25) pages is due by February 

10, 2015. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 3202(e), Defendant’s property shall not be sold prior to the
