Date Filed Document Text
February 13, 2019 Opinion or Order TEXT ORDER entered by Judge Colin Stirling Bruce on 2/13/2019. Plaintiff's motion to inform the Court or remove Defendants #8 is DENIED. It is unclear to the Court what action Plaintiff wants the Court to take as a result of this motion. To the extent that Plaintiff wants to consolidate this case with Case Number 18-2123, his motion is denied because at least some of the facts and claims are not sufficiently similar to justify consolidation. To the extent that Plaintiff wants to dismiss voluntarily any Defendant(s) in this case, he should file a motion to dismiss voluntarily that Defendant or Defendants and should specifically identify who he wants to dismiss. Although the Court cannot provide legal advice to the litigants who appear before it, to the extent that Plaintiff filed this case simply to preserve evidence in Case Number 18-2123, that is not a proper purpose for this suit, and this suit may be subject to dismissal once Defendants are served and if they move to dismiss.
