Filing 3
TEXT ORDER directing the clerk to add plaintiff Romina Portes's email address to the docket ([email protected]). All future notices of electronic filing will be sent to this email address. Portes must continually monitor this email account. The Clerk will no longer mail paper copies of our orders or notices to Portes. Defendants' filings will also be served on Portes via the CM/ECF system. Portes is cautioned that she cannot solely rely on the "docket text" in the notice of electronic filing, which, in many instances, is merely a summary of a court order. Instead, if a linked numeral follows the "document number" in the emailed notice from the court, then Portes must click on the link--which is only active for fifteen days--to obtain and review the court's order. Portes must immediately notify the court of any change in email address and promptly respond to notices of electronic filing as appropriate. Failure to do so may result in dismissal without further notice. Signed by Magistrate Judge Nicholas P. Mizell on 2/24/2026. (TLP)
