Initiating Pleading & IFP Application Received on 11/18/2024. A copy of the docket sheet has been mailed to the address of record for the pro se party. (znmw) (Entered: 11/21/2024)
Date filed: Nov-26-2024
MINUTE ORDER: The Court ORDERS that: 1) Plaintiff's 3 Motion to Proceed Under Pseudonym is DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE as it does not address the five-factor inquiry that applies to such motions, see In re Sealed Case, 971 F.3d 324, 326-27 (D.C. Cir. 2020); 2) Within fourteen days of the Court's Order, Plaintiff shall file either a new Motion that addresses the factors identified in In re Sealed Case or a Notice advising the Clerk of the Court whether he wishes to proceed under his true name, and, if so, he shall also file his 3 Motion on the public docket; and 3) If Plaintiff does not file a new Motion or such Notice within fourteen days, the Clerk is directed to terminate the case. The factors identified in In re Sealed Case are: 1 whether the justification asserted by the requesting party is merely to avoid the annoyance and criticism that may attend any litigation or is to preserve privacy in a matter of a sensitive and highly personal nature; 2 whether identification poses a risk of retaliatory physical or mental harm to the requesting party or, even more critically, to innocent non-parties; 3 the ages of the persons whose privacy interests are sought to be protected; 4 whether the action is against a governmental or private party; and, relatedly, 5 the risk of unfairness to the opposing party from allowing an action against it to proceed anonymously. So ORDERED by Chief Judge James E. Boasberg on 11/26/2024. (lcjeb4) (Entered: 11/26/2024)
