April 29, 2016 Opinion or Order ORDER: The Court denies #165 Plaintiff's motion for an extension of time to file the JPTO. Given that the current filing deadline for the JPTO is still seven (7) weeks away, the Court finds that Plaintiff has not demonstrated a need for an extension at this time.

September 22, 2015 Opinion or Order ORDER denying #158 Motion for Leave to File: The Court denies Plaintiffs ex parte motion to file certain documents and objects with the Court in advance of his deposition and trial in this action. Local Civil Rule 39.1(a) states, Unless the Court orders otherwise, trial and hearing exhibits shall not be filed with the Clerk, but shall be retained in the custody of the respective attorneys who produced them in court. Mr. Maloney seeks to deposit the items in question with the Court in advance of his deposition to assure their availability for trial. However, no trial date has been set, and the items in question have not been offered as exhibits at any Court hearing. Therefore, they do not qualify as trial or hearing exhibits. In any case, Local 39.1(a) requires the attorneys to keep custody of trial and hearing exhibits. Mr. Maloney has not provided a compelling reason for the Court to take custody of the items in question. Upon Plaintiff's consent, and because the Court finds that Plaintiff has an obligation to advise Defendant that he may be withholding documents based on his invocation of a Fifth Amendment privilege, Plaintiff's 9/13/15 letter is hereby unsealed. Ordered by Judge Pamela K. Chen on 9/22/2015. (Chiang, May)

The Court ruled that Plaintiff's witnesses, Chris Pellitteri and Kevin Orcutt, must be offered as expert witnesses pursuant to FRCP 26(a). Plaintiff must therefore comply with the procedures associated with expert witness disclosures and reports, and Defendant may challenge these witnesses' qualifications to testify as experts. The Court also noted that it may merge any Daubert hearing into the bench trial to streamline the proceedings. Ordered by Judge Pamela K. Chen. (Court Reporter Sherry Bryant.) (Chiang, May)

August 31, 2015 Opinion or Order ORDER re #155 Motion for Reconsideration: While the Court does not believe there is any merit to Plaintiff's objection to NEF distribution going to email addresses for attorneys no longer employed by the Nassau County District Attorney's Office or no longer assigned counsel in the case, the Local Rules require a party to file a notice of withdrawal for an attorney who is no longer working on a matter. Accordingly, the Court directs the County to formally file a notice of withdrawal for attorneys no longer working on this case (i.e. Tatum Fox and David Tauster), by 9/9/2015.

August 3, 2015 Opinion or Order ORDER denying #148 Plaintiff's motion for pre-motion conference and finding as moot #149 Defendant's motion for extension of time: The Court DENIES Plaintiff's motion for a pre-motion conference #148 regarding his proposed motion for a permanent injunction as procedurally improper; indeed, the time to have made this argument would have been on summary judgment, which Plaintiff did not seek. In any event, Plaintiff cannot prevail on a motion for a permanent injunction because he has not established the irreparable injury necessary for the issuance of a permanent injunction. See Monsanto Co. v. Geertson Seed Farms, 561 U.S. 139, 156-57 (2010) (citing eBay Inc. v. MercExchange, LLC, 547 U.S. 388, 391 (2006) (plaintiff seeking permanent injunction must establish four factors: "(1) that [he] has suffered an irreparable injury; (2) that remedies available at law, such as monetary damages, are inadequate to compensate for that injury; (3) that, considering the balance of hardships between the plaintiff and defendant, a remedy in equity is warranted; and (4) that the public interest would not be disserved by a permanent injunction.) Indeed, whether Plaintiff will suffer irreparable injury, i.e., the deprivation of his Second Amendment right to bear arms, from the County's enforcement of the nunchaku ban is the issue to be decided at trial. In reality what Plaintiff is seeking is a grant of immunity for any testimony he might give implicating himself in the illegal possession of nunchaku. That grant, however, must come from the County's prosecutors, not the Court. Andover Data Servs., a Div. of Players Computer, Inc. v. Statistical Tabulating Corp., 876 F.2d 1080, 1084 (2d Cir. 1989) ("a trial court generally has no authority to grant immunity to a witness[;]... the power to grant such immunity lies solely within the discretion of the Executive branch."); In re Corrugated Container Antitrust Litigation, 644 F.2d 70, 78 n.13 (2d Cir. 1981) ("courts cannot confer immunity upon a witness on their own initiative"). The Court notes that even if Plaintiff chooses to testify about his experiences with nunchaku, he could selectively invoke his Fifth Amendment privilege as to questions that might expose him to arrest or criminal prosecution, e.g., where the statute of limitations has not yet run, and the Court, as the fact finder, would be permitted, for what it is worth, to infer that Plaintiff possessed nunchaku in violation of the State law ban. See Bank of America, N.A. v. Fischer, 927 F. Supp. 2d 15, 27 (E.D.N.Y. 2013) ("a party in a civil proceeding has the right to assert the privilege against self-incrimination" but "[a] court may drawn an adverse inference against a party who asserts his Fifth Amendment privilege in a civil matter, because the invocation of the privilege results in a disadvantage to opposing parties by keeping them from obtaining information they could otherwise get.") (case citations omitted). Having denied the Plaintiff's motion, the Court denies, as moot, the Defendant's request for an extension of time to respond to Plaintiff's motion.
