Defendant Allied Barton Security Services, LP, sued as above, has filed a motion

for summary judgment which is improperly noticed. The motion, electronically filed and served

by mail on November 8, 2007, schedules hearing on November 29, 2007, the last date for hearing

such motions pursuant to this court’s scheduling order filed May 15, 2007. However, the Local

Rules provide that such motions “shall be set for hearing . . . not less than thirty-one (31) days

after mailed or electronic service and filing of the motion.” E. D. Cal. L. R. 78-230(b). Plaintiff

has not yet filed an opposition, which must generally be served and filed by mailed or electronic

service not less than seventeen (17) days preceding the hearing date. E. D. Cal. L. R. 78-230(c).

Trial in this case is scheduled to commence March 25, 2008; pretrial statements

are due February 1, 2008. There remains adequate time to consider defendant’s motion for
