ERICA P. GROSJEAN, Magistrate Judge.
On May 30, 2017, Defendants filed a motion for summary judgment. (ECF No. 58). The notice of the motion for summary judgment (id. at 2-3) did not mention when Plaintiff's opposition was due, and made no reference to Local Rule 230(1), presumably because Local Rule 230(l) only applies when "one party is incarcerated and proceeding in propria persona." Local Rule 230(l). Accordingly, pursuant to Local Rule 230, the Court will set a hearing on this motion,1 and the regular briefing schedule described in Local Rule 230 will apply.

3. "Opposition, if any, to the granting of the motion shall be in writing and shall be filed and served not less than fourteen (14) days preceding the noticed (or continued) hearing date. A responding party who has no opposition to the granting of the motion shall serve and file a statement to that effect, specifically designating the motion in question. No party will be entitled to be heard in opposition to a motion at oral arguments if opposition to the motion has not been timely filed by that party. See L.R. 135." Local Rule 230(c);
4. "Not less than seven (7) days preceding the date of hearing, the moving party may serve and file a reply to any opposition filed by a responding party." Local Rule 230(d);
