| Filing 28 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: Plaintiff Lee filed a 129-page document that is entitled "Table of Contents," followed by a large collection of exhibits. It is hard to tell what it is, or what it relates to. It is not connected to any other filing. And worse yet, it is unreadable. The typeface is completely blurry. So the filing is stricken. That said, a few pages into the filing, Plaintiff attached a motion for leave to file an amended complaint. The Court grants Plaintiff leave to file an amended complain no later than two weeks from entry of this order. The filing must be readable. If it isn't readable, the Court will strike it. The motion to dismiss #11 is denied as moot. Mailed notice. (jjr, ) |
