Order ~Util - Set Hearings
Fri 01/31 12:45 PM
ORDER: So the request for an ex parte TRO is DENIED. Saab also requests that the Court issue a preliminary injunction. The Court is skeptical of the merits of this request given the caselaw cited above, but will hold a remote hearing on Thursday, February 20, 2025 at 11:00AM. The parties should dial in by calling (646) 453-4442 and entering the Phone Conference ID: 878 857 64, followed by the pound (#) sign. Saab is cautioned that the Court cannot hold this hearing ex parte, so she must serve defendants and file proof of service on the docket by the Friday before the conference if the conference is to go forward. If Saab needs more time to serve defendants (and indeed she has 90 days from issuance of the summons to serve them), she should inform the Court in a letter, and the preliminary injunction conference can be rescheduled to a later date. ( Telephone Conference set for 2/20/2025 at 11:00 AM before Judge Arun Subramanian.) (Signed by Judge Arun Subramanian on 1/31/2025) (sgz) |

The Clerk of Court is directed to assign this matter to my docket.

Standing Order re Cases Filed By Pro Se Plaintiffs
Fri 01/24 2:14 PM
STANDING ORDER IN RE CASES FILED BY PRO SE PLAINTIFFS (See 24-MISC-127 Standing Order filed March 18, 2024). To ensure that all cases heard in the Southern District of New York are handled promptly and efficiently, all parties must keep the court apprised of any new contact information. It is a party's obligation to provide an address for service; service of court orders cannot be accomplished if a party does not update the court when a change of address occurs. Accordingly, all self-represented litigants are hereby ORDERED to inform the court of each change in their address or electronic contact information. Parties may[LINK:consent to electronic service] to receive notifications of court filings by email, rather than relying on regular mail delivery. Parties may also ask the court for[LINK:permission to file documents electronically] . Forms, including instructions for consenting to electronic service and requesting permission to file documents electronically, may be found by clicking on the hyperlinks in this order, or by accessing the forms on the courts website, nysd.uscourts.gov/forms. The procedures that follow apply only to cases filed by pro se plaintiffs. If the court receives notice from the United States Postal Service that an order has been returned to the court, or otherwise receives information that the address of record for a self-represented plaintiff is no longer valid, the court may issue an Order to Show Cause why the case should not be dismissed without prejudice for failure to comply with this order. Such order will be sent to the plaintiffs last known address and will also be viewable on the court's electronic docket. A notice directing the parties' attention to this order shall be docketed (and mailed to any self-represented party that has appeared and has not consented to electronic service) upon the opening of each case or miscellaneous matter that is classified as pro se in the court's records. (Signed by Chief Judge Laura Taylor Swain on 1/24/2025) (tro) |
