FUR SYSTEMS, INC., Plaintiff-Appellee, v. THOMAS L. GAMBARO, DOING BUSINESS AS PATENT ENFORCEMENTCOMPANY, Defendant-Appellant, AND MOTIONLESS KEYBOARD COMPANY, Defendant.
NOTE: This order is nonprecedential.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the
District of Oregon in case no. 10-CV-0231, Judge Anna J. Brown.、
ON MOTION
ORDER
Thomas L. Gambaro submits various motions for relief, including, inter alia, "motion for opinion and order," "motion for reconsideration under RFE 401," and "motion for a new trial."
To the extent that Gambaro requests that only Chief Judge Rader rule on his various motions, that request is denied. Motions are not directed to a particular judge but are acted on by the clerk of court or appropriate motions judge.
Arguments concerning the merits of a case should be presented in the briefs and not by motion. Thus, Gam-baro should make arguments concerning the merits of his appeal in his opening brief. Additionally, the court notes that its proceedings are governed by the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure and the Federal Circuit Rules of Practice.
Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED THAT:
The motions are denied without prejudice to Gambaro making arguments concerning the matters in his brief, if appropriate.
