Opinion
Case No. 6:05-cv-1114-Orl-31KRS.
April 24, 2006
ORDER
This cause came on for consideration without oral argument on the following document filed herein:
MOTION: RESPONSE IN OPPOSITION TO MOTION FOR PROTECTIVE ORDER (Doc. No. 34)
FILED: April 21, 2006
In its response to Plaintiff Cassine Haselden's motion for protective order, Defendant Citibank (South Dakota), N.A. (Citibank) requests a variety of affirmative relief, including imposition of sanctions and an ordering dismissing the case for failure to prosecute it. Doc. No. 34 at 5-6. Including a request for relief in a response effectively precludes the opposing party from an opportunity to respond to the document because the local rules of this Court do not permit filing of reply briefs. Hence, to the extent that Citibank seeks affirmative relief in the response, the requests are DENIED without prejudice to reasserting them in a motion.
DONE and ORDERED.
