Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 10, the title of a complaint must set out the names of all parties to the action. Fed. R. Civ. P. 10(a). Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 17(a)(1) requires that an "action must be prosecuted in the name of the real party in interest." Additionally, the Central District's Local Rules require parties to list, on the first page of all documents, the "names of the parties." L.R.11-3.8(d). "The normal presumption in litigation is that parties must use their real names." Doe v.Kamehameha Sch., 596 F.3d 1036, 1042 (9th Cir. 2010). "[W]hen special circumstances justify secrecy," a party may be permitted to proceed anonymously or use a pseudonym. Does I Thru XXIII v. Advanced Textile Corp., 214 F.3d 1058, 1067 (9th Cir. 2000). A party, however, must obtain leave from the court in order to proceed under a fictitious name. See American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Comm. v. Ridge, SA CV 02-1200 AHS (ANx), 2003 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 25100, at *23 (C.D. Cal. Nov. 5,2003). In this case, the Complaint is filed on behalf of "Stephani S."
