ORDER
GÓMEZ, C.J.
On July 17, 2008, defendants Governor John P. Dejongh,
Melvin Vanterpool, and the Government of the U.S. Virgin Islands
(collectively, the “Defendants”) filed a motion for summary
judgment against the plaintiff Hezakiah U. Samuel (“Samuel”). 
The motion was accompanied by a Memorandum of Points and
Authorities.  
Local Rule of Civil Procedure 56.1(a)(1) provides, in part,
that summary judgment motions shall be accompanied by “a separate
statement of the material facts about which the movant contends
there is no genuine issue.” LRCi 56.1(a)(1).  That rule also
provides that “[e]ach fact paragraph shall be serially numbered
and shall be supported by specific citation to the record.” Id.
The Defendants’ motion neither includes nor is accompanied
by a separate statement of material facts.
The premises considered, it is hereby
ORDERED that the Defendants’ motion for summary judgment is
DENIED without prejudice.
