Civil Case No. 03-00028
October 14, 2003
ORDER
The Court is in receipt of Defendants' Motion for Leave of Court to File Facsimiles of Declarations, filed on October 2, 2003. General Rule 5.1(a) states: "No facsimile filings shall be accepted as the original for filing unless the party seeking to file by facsimile has secured the permission of the Court to file by facsimile by motion to the Court."
In this case, Defendants wish to file with the Court the facsimile reproductions of the following declarations: (1) Declaration of Hing Kai Cheung, Executive Vice President for LSG Lufthansa Service Asia, Inc., (2) Declaration of Dr. Klaus Engelen, Global Senior Vice President, Legal, Corporate Affairs/Subsidiaries for LSG Lufthansa Service Holding, AG, (3) Declaration of Charles Miller, Assistant Secretary for Sky Chefs, Inc. d/b/a LSG Sky Chefs K., a Delaware Company, (4) Declaration of David Wainman, Vice President for LSG Lufthansa Catering Saipan, Inc., (5) Declaration of David Wainman, Vice President for LSG Lufthansa Service Saipan, Inc., and (6) Declaration of King Kai Cheung. Defendants assert that the filing of these facsimile reproductions is necessary to ensure the timely filing of the declarations which are being attached to Defendants' Motion to Dismiss. The Court finds Defendants' request reasonable. Therefore, the Court grants Defendants' motion to file with the Court the facsimile reproductions of these declarations. However, upon receipt of the originally executed declarations, Defendants must immediately file such originals with the Court.
SO ORDERED
