01-11-2013
ATTORNEYS LIABILITY PROTECTION SOCIETY, A RISK RETENTION GROUP, Plaintiff, v. MONICA CAFFARATTI, Defendant.
ORDER
This matter is before the court on Defendant's failure to file a Certificate as to Interested Parties as required by LR 7.1-1. The Complaint (Dkt. #1) in this matter was filed October 10, 2012. Defendant's Answer (Dkt. #16) was filed December 19, 2012. LR 7.1-1(a) requires, unless otherwise ordered, that in all cases (except habeas corpus cases) pro se litigants and counsel for private parties shall, upon entering a case, identify in the disclosure statement required by Fed. R. Civ. P. 7.1 all persons, associations of persons, firms, partnerships or corporations (including parent corporations) which have a direct, pecuniary interest in the outcome of the case. LR 7.1-1(b) further states that if there are no known interested parties, other than those participating in the case, a statement to that effect must be filed. Additionally, LR 7.1-1(c) requires a party to promptly file a supplemental certification upon any change in the information that this rule requires. To date, Defendant has failed to comply. Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED Defendant shall file her Certificate as to Interested Parties, which fully complies with LR 7.1-1 no later than 4:00 p.m., January 25, 2013. Failure to comply may result in the issuance of an order to show cause why sanctions should not be imposed.
