MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Wilson v. Med. Servs. Div., Case No.: 14cv2444-JAH (RBB) (S.D. Cal. 2017):

When the nonmoving party is proceeding pro se, the court has a duty to consider "all of [the nonmovant's] contentions offered in motions and pleadings, where such contentions are based on personal knowledge and set forth facts that would be admissible in evidence, and where [the nonmovant] attested under penalty of perjury that the contents of the motions or pleadings are true and correct." Jones v. Blanas, 393 F.3d 918, 922-23 (9th Cir. 2004) (citations omitted).
