Case N0. 06-726-JJF
Dear Ms. Krett:
We represent Defendants Tatung Company and Tatung Company of America (the
"'l`atung Defendants") and, with this letter, I ask that you reconsider the June ll decision to
strike our June 5 Motion For a More Definite Statement (the "Motion”) (D. 1. 70). We
understand that the Motion was stricken for two reasons: 1) failure to comply with the 30-day
requirement set forth in His I-Ionor’s Standing Order; and 2) failure to e-mail a copy of the
Notice of Motion to Chambers. We apologize for that latter oversight and have included a copy
of the Notice with this letter.
With respect to the timing of our Motion, we do not understand how we might have
complied with the 30-day requirement in the Standing Order while simultaneously meeting our
June 5 deadline for the Motion. While such a motion is expressly permitted under Fed. R. Civ. P.
l2(e), it was required to be liled on or before June 5 — the date the answer was otherwise due.
Thus, although the Motion is non-dispositive, we were unable comply with the Court’s Standing
Order and wait until a date that was within the 30 days of the next motion day.
Accordingly, we request that our motion be reinstated and seek your guidance on how to
deal with this type of issue in the future. While a party in our position may have no relief from
the deadline for the answer, we would be happy to postpone the tiling of the Notice of Motion
until the 30-day period prior to the next motion day or follow whatever other guidance you might
have. llowever, while we doubt that the Plaintiff will move for the entry of a default judgment,
it is important that the record reflect that our Motion was timely filed.
