ORDER
GREGORY H. WOODS, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
On June 22, 2021, the Court granted Lee Litigation Group, PLLC's motion to withdraw as counsel of record for Ms. Yanez. See Dkt. No. 17. During that conference, the Court stated that if no attorney entered an appearance on behalf of Ms. Yanez by July 6, 2021, the Court would understand that Ms. Yanez is choosing to proceed with litigating this case pro se. As of the date of this order, no attorney has entered an appearance on behalf of Ms. Yanez.
The Court will hold a conference on July 22, 2021 at 10:00 a.m. The parties should be prepared to discuss next steps and a schedule for litigating the case. The conference will take place in Courtroom 12C of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, Daniel Patrick Moynihan U.S. Courthouse at 500 Pearl Street, New York, New York, 10007.
Ms. Yanez is ordered to confer with the Southern District's Interpreters Office by no later than July 16, 2021 and to retain a certified interpreter for the July 22, 2021 conference.
Due to the on-going novel coronavirus pandemic, the Southern District of New York has enacted certain protocols designed to ensure the safety of anyone appearing in any Southern District courthouse. This includes a requirement that every person appearing in a Southern District of New York courthouse complete a questionnaire and have their temperature taken. Instructions for completing this questionnaire are attached.
Completing the questionnaire ahead of time will save time and effort upon entry. Only those individuals who meet the entry requirements established by the questionnaire will be permitted entry. Please contact chambers if any member of your team does not meet the requirements.
The Clerk of Court is respectfully directed to mail a copy of this order to Plaintiff by certified mail.
SO ORDERED.
