ORDER
R. STEVEN WHALEN, Magistrate Judge.
Before the Court is Plaintiff's Motion to Have Documents Placed into Evidence [ECF No. 53], in which he seeks to file Defendants' responses to Requests for Admission with the Court.
That's not how it works. Parties to a lawsuit do not file discovery material with the Court as stand-alone documents. Rather, if the Defendants file a motion for summary judgment, the Plaintiff may attach the Requests to Admit, interrogatories, or any other discovery material with his response to the motion, or likewise, he could attach them to his own motion for summary judgment if he chooses to file one. But at this time he cannot simply file them with the Court.
Accordingly, Plaintiff's motion [ECF No.53] is DENIED.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
