Filing 10
ENDORSED ORDER denying #6 Plaintiff's Motion for Permission to Electronically File Documents Using CM/ECF. This District's CM/ECF Administrative Procedures state that "[a]bsent a court order, a pro se litigant is not permitted to file documents in CM/ECF." Administrative Procedures for Electronic Filing, B(4), UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE MIDDLE DISTRICT OF FLORIDA (effective August 1, 2025). A pro se litigant may only obtain access to e-filing with a showing of good cause. See Fischer v. Dist. Sch. Bd. of Collier Cnty., No. 2:10-cv-512-FtM-29SPC, 2010 WL 3522215, at *1 (M.D. Fla. Sept. 7, 2010); Gerow v. Blackwell, No. 8:24-cv-02280-KKM-NHA, 2024 WL 4679030 (M.D. Fla. Nov. 5, 2024). Here, Plaintiff has not identified any specific circumstance in this case constituting "good cause" for e-filing access. See Fischer, 2010 WL 3522215, at *1. The Court will, however, permit Plaintiff to receive documents via email rather than by U.S. Mail, as the considerations discussed above do not apply to a pro se party's means of receiving documents. If Plaintiff desires to receive service of documents via email instead of physical mail, Plaintiff may file a notice indicating consent to receive service of documents via email and providing the email to which documents should be served, on or before January 12, 2026. Signed by Magistrate Judge Nathan W. Hill on 12/11/2025. (LDM)

Filing 4
ENDORSED ORDER denying without prejudice #2 Application to Proceed in District Court Without Prepaying Fees or Costs (Short Form), which the Court construes as a motion.
