July 6, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 17 MINUTE ORDER (text only) authorized by Judge Lauren King. Petitioner's #1 Petition for a Preliminary Injunction, #5 Memorandum of Points and Authorities in Support of Petition for Preliminary Injunctive Relief, and #11 Memorandum of Points and Authorities in Support of a Motion for an Expedited Hearing do not comply with various Local Rules, including but not limited to Local Civil Rule 7(b)(1), which requires that "argument in support of [a] motion shall not be made in a separate document but shall be submitted as part of the motion itself." Docket Numbers #5 and #11 accordingly should have been filed as motions properly noted for the Court's consideration and including a certification of word count as required by the Local Civil Rules. The Court further notes that Docket Number #5 appears to exceed the permitted word count under Local Civil Rule 7(e)(3). Therefore, the Court STRIKES Docket Numbers #5 and #11 and DIRECTS the Clerk to remove Docket Number #1 from the Court's motions calendar. If Petitioner refiles its requests for relief, it must include all arguments in its motion rather than in a separate document, include the required word count, note the motions as required by Local Civil Rule 7, comply with this Court's Standing Order (requiring, among other things, that citations be included in the body of the briefing rather than in footnotes), and otherwise comply with the Local Civil Rules.
