| Filing 15 CLERK ORDER advising that Upon further review, it appears that it would not be appropriate at this time to submit this appeal to a panel of the Court to consider whether the appeal should be dismissed under 28 U.S.C. 1915(e) or whether summary action is warranted under 3d Cir. L.A.R. 27.4 and I.O.P. 10.6. In addition to any other issues the parties wish to address, they are directed to address: 1) whether FedEx was served with the complaint, and if not, whether it should have been served by the U.S. Marshals Service, see, e.g., Freeman v. Lincalis, 158 F.4th 166, 180 (3d Cir. 2025); and 2) whether the remaining claim against FedEx precludes the District Courts order from being a final judgment, see Hill v. City of Scranton, 411 F.3d 118, 124 (3d Cir. 2005). The Clerk shall issue a briefing schedule. (NAF) [Entered: 03/02/2026 11:15 AM] |
