In the United States Court of Federal Claims
No. 05-776C (Filed: August 7, 2007) ************************************* AG-INNOVATIONS, INC., * LARRY FAILLACE, LINDA FAILLACE, * and HOUGHTON FREEMAN, * * Plaintiffs, * * v. * * THE UNITED STATES, * * Defendant. * ************************************* ORDER On July 31, 2007, defendant filed its Motion for Protective Order to Preclude the Taking of a Rule 30(b)(6) Deposition on Certain Topics. The Clerk of the Court noted a defect in the filing. Pursuant to Rule 5.2(a)(1) of the Rules of the United States Court of Federal Claims ("RCFC"), a brief must contain the "table of contents, including the specific contents of any appendix or appendices to the brief or memorandum, listing the various items in the appendix," RCFC 5.2(a)(1)(A), and "if an appendix is used and is not incorporated into the same volume as the brief, there shall be, at the beginning of the appendix, a table of contents or index listing the various items in the appendix," RCFC 5.2(a)(1)(G). Defendant filed an appendix with its Motion for Protective Order; however, the Table of Contents section of defendant's Motion for Protective Order did not contain the specific contents of the appendix. Because the defect is harmless, the court directs the Clerk to file defendant's Motion for Protective Order by leave of court. IT IS SO ORDERED. s/ Margaret M. Sweeney MARGARET M. SWEENEY Judge
