Date Filed Document Text
May 16, 2020 FINAL NOTICE: In preparation of the Court's conversion to NextGen, our Court's CM/ECF system will be unavailable from 12:00 p.m. (Noon) on Friday, May 22, 2020, until 11:59 pm. Monday, May 25, 2020. Please plan accordingly. Complete information, including a checklist of actions regarding the WDPA NexGen CM/ECF implementation, can be found #here. Preparing for NextGen is a two-step process. The first step is to upgrade any legacy PACER accounts. The second step is to link that upgraded PACER account with your WDPA CM/ECF account after the Court goes live with NextGen. To link your account, you will need your current e-filing credentials from our Court. If your CM/ECF login contains any special characters (anything other than a letter or number), you will need to change it as logins with those characters will be unable to link to PACER accounts. No later than Thursday, May 21, 2020, you should log into both PACER and the current version of CM/ECF to review and record your current e-filing credentials for both, as you will need to know them in order to e-file after May 23, 2020. Please consult the Court's #administrative order for additional information on deadlines and alternative filing options during this period. (Administrator, ) (ADI)

May 1, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 11 ORDER re #10 Plaintiff's Withdrawal of Action. Yesterday, the Court entered an Order to Show Cause why this case should not be dismissed for Plaintiff's failure to submit his Authorization form indicating whether he authorized partial payments from his prison account to pay the filing fee for this case or whether he wished to voluntarily withdraw this action without payment of any portion of the filing fee. See ECF No. 9. That Order crossed in the mail with Plaintiff's Authorization form, which the Court received today. Plaintiff's Authorization form indicates that he wishes to voluntarily withdraw this action. As such, there is no further action required on Plaintiff's part and the Clerk is directed to mark this CASE CLOSED. Signed by Magistrate Judge Lisa Pupo Lenihan on May 1, 2020. Text-only entry; no PDF document will issue. This text-only entry constitutes the Order of the Court or Notice on the matter. (kcb)

April 29, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 9 ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE why this case should not be dismissed for Plaintiff's failure to comply with the Court's Order at 4/3/2020 (ECF No. #3 ) insofar as Plaintiff has failed to complete and return his Authorization form, which was due by 4/13/20. As of today, the Court has not received Plaintiff's Authorization form. Plaintiff shall have until 5/15/20 to complete and return the Authorization form (ECF No. 3-1) that the Clerk is directed to enclose with this Order. On this form, Plaintiff shall sign either the top section that authorizes monthly payments from his inmate account or the bottom section that moves to withdraw this action without payment of any portion of the filing fee. Plaintiff shall not sign both sections of the form. If this form is not received by 5/15/20, then this action may be dismissed without further notice to Plaintiff.

April 29, 2020 Filing 8 Original filed in error. Corrected entry filed at ECF No. 9.
April 29, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 7 ORDER denying as moot #6 Plaintiff's Motion for Leave to Proceed in forma pauperis. Plaintiff has already been granted leave to proceed in forma pauperis by Order dated 4/3/2020 at ECF No. #3 . However, to the extent Plaintiff is not seeking leave to proceed in forma pauperis, but instead asking that he be relieved from having to pay the $25.17 initial partial filing fee, as also ordered by the Court on 4/3/2020, his motion is granted. However, Plaintiff is still assessed the total $350.00 filing fee in this case. The filing fee is mandated by statute and the Court cannot relieve a party from having to pay it. Nevertheless, as directed by the Court in its Order dated 4/3/2020, Plaintiff has been granted leave to pay this filing fee in partial payments of 20% of his preceding month's income credited to his account until the filing fee for this case is paid in full. As such, while Plaintiff does not have to pay an initial partial filing fee, he still has to pay the entire $350.00 filing fee in partial payments. Signed by Magistrate Judge Lisa Pupo Lenihan on April 29, 2020. Text-only entry; no PDF document will issue. This text-only entry constitutes the Order of the Court or Notice on the matter. (kcb)

April 26, 2020 IMPORTANT NOTICE: The United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania will be upgrading its current CM/ECF system to the Next Generation of CM/ECF on May 26, 2020. Complete information, including a checklist of actions regarding the WDPA NexGen CM/ECF implementation, can be found #here. Preparing for NextGen is a two-step process. The first step is to upgrade any legacy PACER accounts. Each attorney must have an individual upgraded PACER account in order to electronically file after our conversion to NextGen. The second step will be to link that upgraded PACER account with your WDPA CM/ECF account after the Court goes live with NextGen. To link your account, you will need your current e-filing credentials from our Court. If your CM/ECF login contains a special character (such as &, @, $, *), you will need to change it as logins with those characters will be unable to link to PACER accounts. No later than Thursday, May 21, 2020, you should log into both PACER and the current version of CM/ECF to (1) review and record your current e-filing credentials for both, as you will need to know them in order to e-file after May 23, 2020 and (2) ensure that your primary email address to receive Notices of Electronic Filings (NEF) is accurate.
