IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO Judge Phillip S. Figa Civil Action No. 04-cv-01263-PSF-MEH ROBERT M. FRIEDLAND, Plaintiff, v. TIC ­ THE INDUSTRIAL COMPANY; and GEOSYNTEC CONSULTANTS INC., f/k/a Geoservices, Inc., Defendants.

ORDER DENYING EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE RESPONSE FOR NONCOMPLIANCE WITH LOCAL RULE

Plaintiffs' Motion for Extension of Time to Respond to Defendant TIC' Motion s for Summary Judgment (Dkt. # 80) is DENIED without prejudice for failing to establish sufficient effort to comply with D.C.COLO.LCivR 7.1A, which states in part: " The court will not consider any motion . . . unless counsel for the moving party or a pro se party, before filing the motion, has conferred or made reasonable, good-faith efforts to confer with opposing counsel or a pro se party to resolve the disputed matter." (Emphasis added.) Simply stating that an attempt was made to confer by apparently sending a single e-mail to opposing counsel, without indicating the period of time between such communication and the filing of the motion, and in the absence of any followup attempts, does not demonstrate " reasonable, good-faith efforts."
