Guillermo Bonilla et al. v. California Highway Patrol, et al.,
Leslie E. Kobayashi JUDGE
MINUTE ORDER
COURT ACTION: EO: COURT ORDER REGARDING LODGED TRANSCRIPTS OF PLAINTIFFS' DEPOSITIONS
On January 16, 2019, Defendants California Highway Patrol and Muriel McKenzie (“Defendants”) filed their Motion for Summary Judgment (“Motion”). [Dkt. no. 72.] In support of the Motion, Defendants lodged the complete transcripts of Plaintiffs Guillermo Bonilla and Sandra Amaya Bonilla's (“Plaintiffs”) respective depositions (“Lodged Transcripts”), pursuant to Local Rule 133(j). See Notice of Lodging of Plaintiffs [sic] Deposition Transcripts, filed 1/16/19 (dkt. no. 73).
On April 22, 2021, this Court issued the Order Granting Defendants' Motion for Summary Judgment (“4/22/21 Order”). [Dkt. no. 93.] In the 4/22/21 Order, this Court did not consider the Lodged Transcripts. This Court therefore declines to make the Lodged Transcripts part of the official record in this case. See Local Rule 133(j) (“Neither hard copy nor electronic copy of the entire deposition will become part of the official record of the action absent order of the Court.”). This Court will dispose of the Lodged Transcripts on June 21, 2021, unless: 1) Defendants file a request for the Lodged Transcripts to be returned to Defendants' counsel; or 2) any party files an objection to this Court's decision not to make the Lodged Transcripts part of the record in this case. The request or objection must be filed by June 14, 2021. Any party objecting to this Court's decision must set forth the reason(s) why the Lodged Transcripts should be made part of the record.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
