Opinion
Case. No. 10-11243
03-14-2012
Honorable John Corbett O'Meara
Magistrate Judge David R. Grand
ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF'S "MOTION TO STRIKE PLAINTIFF'S
MDOC CRIMINAL HISTORY FROM EXHIBIT 1 OF DEFENDANT
ARAMARK'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT" (Doc. #43)
Before the court for a determination and order is Plaintiff's "Motion to Strike" (Doc. #43) in which he asks the court to strike his criminal history report that was attached as part of Exhibit 1 to Defendant Aramark Corporation's motion for summary judgment (Doc. #34-2 at 3-6). For the reasons discussed below, the court will deny Plaintiff's motion.
Defendant Aramark filed a response to Plaintiff's instant motion to strike, arguing that the motion lacked any basis in law and was procedurally improper. Doc. #44. However, the court need not reach those merits as Plaintiff filed a reply brief in which he stated he "has no OBJECTIONS to [Aramark's] arguments." Doc. #46 at 1. As a suggested quid pro quo, Plaintiff asked that the court consider various conditions of his confinement not raised in this action in ruling on the Defendants' then-pending dispositive motions. Id. However, on March 13, 2012, this court issued a Report and Recommendation to grant the Defendants' dispositive motions and to dismiss this action. Doc. #52. The court considered neither Plaintiff's criminal history, nor his newly-raised confinement issues in its decision. Id.
Since Plaintiff has no objection to Aramark's position, and since the court did not consider the information at issue in its Report and Recommendation, the court will deny Plaintiff's instant motion to strike.
For the reasons stated above, IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiff's Motion to Strike (Doc. #43) is DENIED.
Ann Arbor, Michigan
