November 16, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 8 ELECTRONIC ORDER: On November 16, 2022, the defendant Charles Wallace ("Wallace") filed an answer in this case but did not provide the clerk with a certificate of interested persons. N.D. Tex. Civ. R. 7.4 requires that "[t]he initial responsive pleading or motion filed in lieu of a responsive pleading that a defendant files in a civil action must be accompanied by a separately signed certificate of interested persons that complies with LR3.1(c) or 3.2(e). If the defendant concurs in the accuracy of another party's previously-filed certificate, the defendant may adopt that certificate." LR 3.1(c) and 3.2(e) in turn require that "[w]hen a complaint is filed, the plaintiff must provide the clerk with... a separately signed certificate of interested persons... that contains... a complete list of all persons, associations of persons, firms, partnerships, corporations, guarantors, insurers, affiliates, parent or subsidiary corporations, or other legal entities that are financially interested in the outcome of the case. If a large group of persons or firms can be specified by a generic description, individual listing is not necessary." Accordingly, no later than November 30, 2022, Wallace must comply with Rule 3.1(c) or 3.2(e) so that the court can ensure that recusal is not required in this case. (Ordered by Senior Judge A. Joe Fish on 11/16/2022) (chmb)
