April 16, 2008 Opinion or Order Filing 331 MINUTE entry before Judge Honorable Blanche M. Manning: The court has received the response to the rule to show cause from counsel for plaintiff Jenny Rubin. In addition to apologizing for filing a brief late and without first obtaining leave of court, counsel also stated that they are now familiar with the Local Rules and commit to adhering to them in the future. Based upon those representations, the court dismisses the rule to show cause as to plaintiff Jenny Rubin. The court grants the motion to file Rubin's response brief instanter [324-1] and strikes the motion for an extension [323-1] as moot. Counsel for defendant Iran previously advised the court that it will not file a reply and so its objection [317-1] to Magistrate Judge Ashman's January 18, 2008, order is taken under advisement. Ruling will be by mail unless the parties are otherwise notified. The parties shall report for a status hearing as previously scheduled for Thursday, April 17, at 11:00 a.m.Mailed notice (rth, )

Further, Iran has yet to file a reply brief, which is now long overdue.The court takes motions [323-1] and [324-1] under advisement and issues a rule to show cause why (1) the motions should not be denied, (2) Iran should not be barred from filing a reply brief, and (3) Rubin and Iran should not be sanctioned for failing to adhere to the courts deadlines. Rubin and Iran are each directed to file no later than Tuesday, April 15, 2008, a statement of no more than 3 pages addressing this issue.
