CAMERON McARTHUR, Plaintiff, v. SOURCE GAS, LLC, Defendant.
MINUTE ORDER
Entered by Magistrate Judge Michael J. Watanabe
It is hereby ORDERED that Plaintiff's Motion to Strike Pleading and/or Alternatively Motion to Stay (docket no. 83) is DENIED. The decision to grant a motion to strike rests within the sound discretion of the district judge. F.D.I.C. v. Isham, 782 F. Supp. 524, 530 (D. Colo. 1992). Applying this standard, I find no basis to strike Defendant's Motion to Dismiss and for Sanctions (docket no. 73) and I further find no basis to stay this case. This court will consider and rule on Defendant's Motion to Dismiss and for Sanctions (docket no. 73)[filed on August 4, 2011] once it becomes ripe for ruling. Lastly, pursuant to D.C.COLO.LCivR 7.1 C, "... Nothing in this rule precludes a judicial officer from ruling on a motion at any time after it is filed."
