DEBRA GUMLICH, Plaintiff, v. CHRONICLE NEWS PUBLISHING COMPANY, d/b/a THE CHRONICLE NEWS, Defendant.
MINUTE ORDER
Entered by Michael E. Hegarty, United States Magistrate Judge, on April 19, 2012.
The Motion to Strike on Behalf of Chronicle News Publishing Company d/b/a the Chronicle-News [filed April 16, 2012; docket #10] is denied. The Court does not find that Exhibits 1 and 2 submitted with Plaintiff's Complaint are "redundant, immaterial, impertinent, or scandalous..." See Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(f). Moreover, Rule 12(f)(2) requires that a motion to strike be filed before responding to the pleading. Defendant filed its Answer on March 30, 2012, and filed the present motion over two weeks later. Therefore, the motion is untimely.
