`ORDER
`

`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`TO PARTIES WINDY CITY INNOVATIONS, LLC, FACEBOOK, INC., AND THEIR RESPECTIVE
`
`COUNSEL OF RECORD WARREN J. MCCARTY III AND HEIDI KEEFE:
`
`YOU ARE ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE why you should not be sanctioned in the amount of
`
`$250.00 for failing to comply with the Court’s Standing Order regarding summary judgment pre-
`
`filing letters. Both parties’ filings (Dkt. Nos. 140, 141) were formatted in such as way as to
`
`circumvent this Court’s Standing Order in Civil Cases which requires the submission of a letter to the
`
`Court not to exceed three single-spaced pages, including any attached exhibits or supporting papers.
`
`(Standing Order in Civil Cases at paragraph 9(a) emphasis in original.) Here, the filings were not
`
`letters to the Court but rather single-spaced briefs.
`
`A hearing on this Order to Show Cause will be held on Monday, January 28, 2019, on the
`
`Court’s 2:01 p.m. Calendar, in the Federal Courthouse, 1301 Clay Street, Oakland, California, in
`
`Courtroom 1.
`
`By no later than Friday, January 25, 2019, the parties each must file a written statement
`
`explaining their failure to comply with the Court’s Standing Order in Civil Cases, and attest that they
`
`have reviewed the Court’s Standing Order in Civil Cases. Failure to file a written response or to
`
`appear personally will be deemed an admission that no good cause exists and that the imposition of
`
`monetary sanctions is appropriate.
`
`IT IS SO ORDERED.
`Date: (cid:45)(cid:68)(cid:81)(cid:88)(cid:68)(cid:85)(cid:92)(cid:3)(cid:21)(cid:22)(cid:15)(cid:3)(cid:21)(cid:19)(cid:20)(cid:28)
