ROSARIO TINAJERO, Plaintiff, v. DMM AUTOMOTIVE, INC., a Colorado corporation, Defendant.
MINUTE ORDER
ENTERED BY MAGISTRATE JUDGE KRISTEN L. MIX
This matter is before the Court on the parties' Joint Motion to Stay [Docket No. 9; Filed August 9, 2012] (the "Motion"). The parties ask the Court to stay this matter pending the outcome of arbitration. The parties do not suggest an estimated end-date for the stay, nor do the parties include legal support for their request for an open-ended stay of all proceedings. Further, it does not appear that the parties have considered requesting administrative closure of this case pursuant to D.C.COLO.LCivR 41.2, in lieu of an open-ended stay. Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Motion is DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE. The Court directs the parties to consider requesting administrative closure pursuant to D.C.COLO.LCivR 41.2 as a preferred alternative to an indefinite stay of proceedings.
