Filing 13
ENDORSED ORDER denying #11 Plaintiff's emergency second renewed motion for a temporary restraining order. Because Plaintiff asks the court to order Defendants to issue him a passport, Plaintiff seeks a preliminary injunction, not a temporary restraining order. See Fernandez-Roque v. Smith, 671 F.2d 426, 429 (11th Cir. 1982) (explaining that unlike a preliminary injunction, a temporary restraining order "merely preserv[es] the status quo"). "The court may issue a preliminary injunction only on notice to the adverse party." Fed. R. Civ. P. 65(a)(1). The court again notes that Defendants have not yet appeared in this case. When appropriate, Plaintiff may file a motion for a preliminary injunction in compliance with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 65 and Middle District of Florida Local Rule 6.02. Signed by Judge Julie S. Sneed on 12/2/2024. (AJL)

Filing 10
ENDORSED ORDER denying without prejudice #5 Plaintiff's Application for Permission for Electronic Filing. Plaintiff submitted a form used in the Central District of California. This District does not use such a form because as a rule, it does not permit pro se parties to file electronically. However, Plaintiff may file a motion for leave to file electronically in this case provided the motion contains factual and legal bases for this relief. Signed by Judge Julie S. Sneed on 11/27/2024. (AJL)
|
Filing 9
ENDORSED ORDER denying without prejudice #8 Plaintiff's emergency renewed motion for temporary restraining order for failure to comply fully with Middle District of Florida Local Rule 6.01. Plaintiff may refile the motion provided he complies fully with the rule, for example by including "a precise and verified explanation of the amount and form of the required security." M.D. Fla. Loc. R. 6.01(a)(4). Further, if Plaintiff seeks to have the temporary restraining order issued without notice to the defendants, he shall file a proposed order that complies with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 65(b)(2), and if he seeks to have it issued with notice, the court notes that the defendants have not yet appeared in this case. Signed by Judge Julie S. Sneed on 11/27/2024. (AJL)
