Filing 5
TEXT ORDER. A unilateral notice of consent to a magistrate judge's authority was filed in this matter on behalf of pro se plaintiff John King Howell, IV, but the notice was not signed by plaintiff. Instead, it was signed by his mother, Patricia Howell. However, plaintiff's mother is not an attorney nor does she have legal representation, so she cannot file pleadings or other documents on behalf of her son. See FuQua v. Massey, 615 F. App'x 611, 612 (11th Cir. 2015) (explaining the right to appear pro se "is limited to parties conducting their own cases and does not extend to non-attorney parties representing the interests of others"). Therefore, the notice is deemed stricken, and the CLERK is DIRECTED to delete the PDF file (Doc. 4) from the CM/ECF docket. Signed by Magistrate Judge Nicholas P. Mizell on 12/17/2025. (TLP)
