Filing 205
ENDORSED ORDER striking without prejudice #136 Motion to Dismiss filed by Catalina Rebolledo and #138 Motion to Dismiss filed by Richard Rivera for failure to comply with the Standing Order Requiring Disclosure of Use of Artificial Intelligence. As indicated in Section IX of the Standing Order, "[f]ilings may be stricken without prejudice if, within ten days of the date this Standing Order is entered... no Certification of Compliance With Rule 11 appears on the docket with reference to that filing." On review of the docket, no such certification has been made with respect to docket entries # 136 and 138 and neither have been withdrawn under the safe harbor provision of the Standing Order. The #183 Motion to Dismiss filed by Catalina Rebolledo and #190 Motion to Dismiss filed by Richard Rivera are also stricken as impermissible filings under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(g)(2). Although a document stricken for non-compliance with the Standing Order may be re-filed, it may not advance new arguments not raised in the original motion and a pending motion to dismiss may not be amended unless leave of Court is first obtained. The Clerk is directed to STRIKE #136 Motion to Dismiss, #138 Motion to Dismiss, #183 Motion to Dismiss, and #190 Motion to Dismiss. The pro se parties in this case are advised that while a degree of leniency is appropriately afforded to unrepresented parties, pro se parties are not excused from the requirement of compliance with Court Orders and procedural rules. It is the obligation of every pro se litigant to read Court Orders and become familiar with the applicable procedural rules. The failure to comply with such requirements has been repeated in this case. If it continues, non-compliant parties should be prepared for, as appropriate, dismissal of the complaint, entry of a default, imposition of sanctions, or entry of an order requiring that pro se parties who fail to comply with Court Orders and procedural rules will only be heard through counsel. Signed by Judge Anne-Leigh Gaylord Moe on 6/24/2026. (LIA)
