Order on Motion for Waiver
Tue 05/06 9:36 AM
MINUTE ORDER granting Plaintiffs'2 Ex Parte Motion for Waiver of Local Rule 5.1(c)(1). Local Civil Rule 5.1(c)(1) requires a plaintiff to provide his "full residence address" in his "first filing." A party who "does not wish to appear on the public docket," may "omit the address and simultaneously file [it] under seal," but that information will be available to "the opposing party." Id. This Court, however, has discretion to exempt Plaintiffs from that requirement for good cause if doing so will not prejudice Defendant. See Yaman v. U.S. Dept of State , 786 F. Supp. 2d 148, 151-54 (D.D.C. 2011). Upon consideration of Plaintiffs'2 Ex Parte Motion for Waiver of Local Rule 5.1(c)(1), the Court finds that Plaintiffs have shown good cause and that Defendant will suffer no prejudice. Thus, it is hereby ORDERED that Plaintiffs'2 Ex Parte Motion is GRANTED. It is further ORDERED that Plaintiffs shall file ex parte and under seal their full residence address by June 4, 2025. See LCvR 5.1(c)(1). Signed by Judge Timothy J. Kelly on 5/6/2025. (lctjk1) |
