ELECTRONIC ORDER: Pursuant to Special Order 3, before the undersigned magistrate judge for determination is Plaintiffs Motion to Challenge the Qualification of Honorable Magistrate Judge Renee Harris Toliver, Doc. #16 , filed by pro se Plaintiff Mawule Tepe. The undersigned recently recommended that the Court should enforce the pre-filing sanction of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee in Tepe v. United States, No. 1:22-CV-272 (E.D. Tenn. Feb. 16, 2023), and dismiss this lawsuit without prejudice and bar Plaintiff from filing future actions in this or any other federal court. Tepe fails to state a legal basis for the disqualification of the undersigned in this case. Tepe declares without any supporting evidence: [T]he action of Honorable Magistrate Judge Renee Harris Toliver not only violates Plaintiff's 5th and 6th amendments rights, but also it is biased against Plaintiff since despite the U.S. Supreme Court's cases precedent that prohibits sanctions and unjustified restrictions, as well as the undisputed evidence on the record that IRS has unlawfully seized Plaintiff's IncomeTax refund, he tries to barre Plaintiff from being restored into his fundamental rights.Besides this, it appears that Honorable Magistrate Judge Renee Harris Toliver issued the recommendation to defend Defendants IRS or United States since he works for United States Government, and he is also trying to defend Defendants Whirlpool Corporation and Ogletree Deakins Nash Stewart PC. Doc. 16 at 4-5 (errors in the original). His scurrilous personal opinions aside, Tepe has failed to establish that the undersigned has any personal interest in or personal bias or prejudice for or against either party to this lawsuit. See 28 U.S.C. 144 and 455. Accordingly, Plaintiff's Motion to Challenge the Qualification of Honorable Magistrate Judge Renee Harris Toliver is DENIED. (Ordered by Magistrate Judge Renee Harris Toliver on 7/11/2024) (chmb)
