ORDER

(Docket No. 38)

"[W]e expect an attorney practicing in federal court to become familiar with and follow rules applicable to practice in this court." See, e.g., Dela Rosa v. Scottsdale Memorial Health Sys., Inc., 136 F.3d 1241, 1244 (9th Cir. 1998). As the Court has already pointed out in this case only a few weeks ago, "stipulations must be signed by all counsel." Docket No. 37 (citing Local Rule 7-1(a)). Moreover, an electronic signature or handwritten signature must be provided for the filing attorney. See, e.g., Local Rule IC 5-1(a), (b). The pending stipulation for a settlement conference is not signed by any counsel. See Docket No. 38 at 2.1 Accordingly, that stipulation is DENIED without prejudice.

In light of Plaintiff's counsel's inability to comply with the basic rules of this Court, even after they have been expressly enumerated in a Court order, the Court further ORDERS Daniel Zemel to read the local rules that became effective on May 1, 2016 in their entirety. Mr. Zemel shall file a declaration indicating that he has read the local rules by no later than July 18, 2016. Plaintiff and Plaintiff's counsel are further cautioned that they are expected to comply with all applicable rules and orders, and that the failure to do so in the future may result in the imposition of sanctions.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

FootNotes


1. In addition, the stipulation was docketed by counsel with the incorrect CM/ECF event, as it was docketed as a motion rather than a stipulation.
