                MINUTE ORDER denying #81 Motion to Enforce the Court's April 14, 2026 Minute Order (ECF 63) Or, In the Alternative, For a Status Conference.The Court has reviewed the #81 Motion and #90 Response and agrees with Defendants that there is nothing to enforce. The parties agreed on a process designed to help Plaintiff secure services for his son, but the Court did not issue an order binding Defendants. The last conference clarified several things: (1) CFC services would be denied and excluded from the PAR if TRE deemed them duplicative of DD waiver services; (2) TRE would likely make that finding, and exclude those services, but not others; (3) Plaintiff disagreed with that conclusion; (4) Plaintiff disagreed with Defendants' application of the applicable Medicaid regulations; and (5) despite the parties' disagreements, they could move forward with securing services for Plaintiff's son. Recognizing Plaintiff's continuing objections, the parties agreed to suspend, but preserve, all merits arguments while they pursued the agreed-upon process. However, the #81 Motion suggests Plaintiff has reverted to the same arguments the parties agreed to temporarily set aside. The Court reminds Plaintiff that the parties share one goal: securing services for his son. Those services may not be what Plaintiff believes his son is entitled to, and they may not be delivered in the manner he believes is required, but following the agreed-upon process and reserving those arguments for later would provide meaningful interim assistance while this litigation proceeds. The Motion is DENIED. The Court will review the previously-ordered joint status report, which is due June 22, 2026. ECF 79. Thereafter, the Court will schedule a status conference if one appears to be a good use of judicial resources. For all non-e-filer pro se parties, a copy of this document has been sent via U.S. Mail to the mailing address of record. Text Only Entry(mdblc6.)

                MINUTE ORDER: Plaintiff's #67 Motion for Leave to File Overlength Opposition to Defendants The Resource Exchange and Colleen Head Batchelor's Motion to Dismiss [Doc. 47] with Opposition Filed Contemporaneously is GRANTED in part and DENIED in part. Plaintiff's request for additional pages is DENIED. However, while the Court does not typically permit parties to incorporate arguments from other briefs, the Court will allow Plaintiff to incorporate by reference portions of his opposition to the State Defendants' Motion to Dismiss, see [Docs. #46 , #66 ], into his opposition to portions of The Resource Exchange ("TRE") and Colleen Head Batchelor's #47 Motion to Dismiss that join the State Defendants' Motion. In light of Plaintiff's pro se status, the Court will also sua sponte extend his deadline to respond to TRE and Ms. Batchelor's Motion. Accordingly, no later than May 1, 2026, Plaintiff may file a response of up to 15 pages in length in opposition to TRE and Ms. Batchelor's #47 Motion to Dismiss. See NYW Civ. Practice Standard 10.1(c)(1) (setting 15-page limit and providing that the cover page, signature block, and certificate of service do not count toward the page limit). As a courtesy, the Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to serve Plaintiff with a copy of this Minute Order by email, using the email address listed in Plaintiff's Motion. [Doc. #67 at 4]. By Judge Nina Y. Wang on 4/24/2026. For all non-e-filer pro se parties, a copy of this document has been sent via U.S. Mail to the mailing address of record. Text Only Entry(nywlc8, )

                MINUTE ORDER: This matter is before the Court on Defendants' respective response briefs, [Docs. #21 , #23 ], and Plaintiff's First Amended Complaint for Declaratory and Injunctive Relief, [Doc. #26 ]. On December 1, 2025, the Court implemented a Standing Order Regarding the Use of Generative Artificial Intelligence ("AI") in Court Filings ("Standing Order"). The Standing Order is available on the Court's website and requires litigants to include an "AI Certification" with "[e]very filing," indicating whether AI was used in drafting the filing. Defendants' response briefs and Plaintiff's Amended Complaint do not include such a certification. No later than March 6, 2026, the Parties shall file supplemental AI Certifications that comply with the Court's Standing Order and are signed by all individuals whose signatures appear on the respective filings. The Parties are advised that future failures to include an AI Certification may result in the filing being stricken without substantive consideration. By Judge Nina Y. Wang on 3/2/2026. For all non-e-filer pro se parties, a copy of this document has been sent via U.S. Mail to the mailing address of record. Text Only Entry (nywlc8, )

                MINUTE ORDER: This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff's #27 Unopposed Motion for Leave to File Excess Pages to Reply in Support of Plaintiff's Emergency Motion for Temporary Restraining Order and Preliminary Injunction ("Motion for Leave"). Plaintiff seeks leave to file a 20-page reply brief to address "numerous factual and legal issues" raised in Defendants' responses. [Doc. 27 at 2]. But several of the issues listed by Plaintiff -- including "ripeness," "Younger abstention," and the "state-created danger doctrine" -- do not appear in Defendants' respective responses. [Id.]. See generally [Doc. #21 ; Doc. #23 ]. Although Plaintiff may address bases for relief that he believes Defendants failed to rebut, it is unclear why he needs additional pages to reply to arguments that do not exist. See BlueRadios, Inc. v. Kopin Corp., No. 16-cv-02052-JLK, 2024 WL 5356869, at *2 (D. Colo. June 24, 2024) ("It is axiomatic that a reply brief is limited to the nonmovant's responses."). Accordingly, Plaintiff's Motion for Leave is respectfully GRANTED in part and DENIED in part. Plaintiff may file a reply brief of up to 15 pages in length. By Judge Nina Y. Wang on 3/2/2026. For all non-e-filer pro se parties, a copy of this document has been sent via U.S. Mail to the mailing address of record. Text Only Entry(nywlc8, )

                ORDER REFERRING CASE: This case is referred to Magistrate Judge Maritza Dominguez Braswell for all motions. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 636(b)(1)(A) and (B) and Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(a) and (b), this case is referred to the assigned United States Magistrate Judge to (1) convene a scheduling conference under Fed. R. Civ. P. 16(b) and enter a scheduling order meeting the requirements of D.C.COLO.LCivR 16.2, (2) conduct such status conferences and issue such orders necessary for compliance with the scheduling order, including amendments or modifications of the scheduling order upon a showing of good cause, (3) hear and determine pretrial matters, including discovery and other non-dispositive motions, and (4) conduct hearings, including evidentiary hearings, and submit proposed findings of fact and recommendations for rulings on dispositive motions. Court-sponsored alternative dispute resolution is governed by D.C.COLO.LCivR 16.6. On the request of the Parties by motion, this Court may direct the Parties to engage in an early neutral evaluation, a settlement conference, or another alternative dispute resolution proceeding. Alternatively, the Magistrate Judge, at her discretion, may convene such early neutral evaluation and/or settlement conferences and direct related procedures as may facilitate resolution of this case without the necessity of a motion or prior authorization of the undersigned. Counsel for the Parties and all counsel who may later enter an appearance shall review and familiarize themselves with the undersigned's Practice Standards, as well as the Practice Standards of the assigned Magistrate Judge. By Judge Nina Y. Wang on 2/23/2026. For all non-e-filer pro se parties, a copy of this document has been sent via U.S. Mail to the mailing address of record. Text Only Entry (nywlc8, )

                Order Drawing Case by Magistrate Judge Richard T. Gurley on 02/19/2026. After review pursuant to D.C.COLO.LCivR 8.1(a), the court has determined that this case does not appear to be appropriate for summary dismissal. Therefore, the case will be drawn to a presiding judge. See D.C.COLO.LCivR 8.1(c). Based on the pending motion for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction, and D.C.COLO.LCivR 40.1(c)(2)(a), the case may not be directly assigned to a magistrate judge. Accordingly, it is ordered that this case be drawn to a district judge. (This case has been randomly reassigned to District Judge Nina Y. Wang and drawn to Magistrate Judge Maritza Dominguez Braswell for all further proceedings. All future pleadings should be designated as 26-cv-00639-NYW.) For all non-e-filer pro se parties, a copy of this document has been sent via U.S. Mail to the mailing address of record. (pklin, )
