ORDER ON DEFENDANT'S MOTION TO STRIKE
PLAINTIFF'SJURY DEMANDFROM HER FIRST AMENDEDCOMPLAINT
This Matter is before the Court on Defendant Miami Valley Hospital's ("Defendant")
Motion to Strike Plaintiffs Jury Demand From Her First Amended Complaint. Because this Court
has alreadyheld that Plaintiffs request to add a jury demandis not permitted (ECF 29, at PageID
#191), Plaintiffs jury demand within her First Amended Complaint (ECF 31) is improper and
must be stricken. Accordingly, it is ORDERED that: (1) Defendant's Motion to Strike is
GRANTED; and (2) Plaintiffs Jury Demand is STRICKENfrom her First Amended Complaint.
This matter, if tried, shall be to the Court on a bench trial.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
