The basis is as follows. Fed. R. Civ. P. 16(b) authorizes exemption of Discovery Plan/Scheduling Order under local rules. A civil forfeiture in rem action is exempt from a Discovery Plan/Scheduling Order under LR 16-1. "[I]n forfeiture ... actions, no discovery plan is required." LR 16-1.
On April 4, 2014, the United States contacted David L. McGee, attorney for CHARLES BURTON RITCHIE, ZIW, LLC, STEPHANIE RITCHIE, and BENJAMIN E. GALECKI, who objected to this Motion. This Motion is not submitted solely for the purpose of delay or for any other improper purpose.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
