2012-02-02 100 0 ORDER denying 87 Motion for TRO and for Preliminary Injunction; denying 88 Motion for Relief; denying 90 Motion for Extension of Time; denying 91 Motion for Joinder; denying 99 Motion for Rulings. These motions are frivolous, merely repeating requests that the Court has already denied. Plaintiff's complaint that he is not being provided with paper is belied by the hundreds of pages of briefs and other documents that he has filed with these motions. With the exception of #99, the motions were evidently not served as required by Fed. R. Civ. P. 5(d). The Court does not find Plaintiff's arguments defending his failure to serve copies persuasive. In addition, #88 is not a proper motion of any kind, #90 seeks an extension of time to file what would plainly be a frivolous motion, and #91 is untimely, coming as it does nine months after the close of discovery. The Court instructs Plaintiff not to file more motions that merely repeat requests made in motions that have already been denied. Signed by Judge Charles S. Haight, Jr on February 2, 2012.

2012-06-28 127 0 RULING denying 117 Motion for Reconsideration; denying 123 Motion for Extension of Time; denying 126 Motion for Default Judgment. See attached Ruling.

If no memorandum is filed within that time, the Court will consider the motion to be unopposed, regardless of any other motions filed by Plaintiff. The extension of Plaintiff's time to respond renders the Motion for Default Judgment moot. Signed by Judge Charles S. Haight, Jr on June 28, 2012.
