Opinion
Case No. 5:06cv244/RS/EMT.
March 12, 2007
ORDER
Plaintiff's document entitled TO: Clerk of the Court (with other miscellaneous items), received 3/01/2007, was referred to the undersigned with the following deficiency:
The document is not in proper form. As Plaintiff has been previously advised ( see Docs. 7, 9, 15), the title of the pleading, motion, or other paper must immediately follow the style of the case and shall include a clear, concise and specific identification of the document being filed and the filing party. The body of the document should state the nature of the filing party's request and the relief sought from the court. See N.D. Fla. Loc. R. 5.1(B)(2).
In addition, Plaintiff is advised that he need not return to the court any copies or the originals of this court's prior orders, nor should Plaintiff return informational letters sent to him by the clerk.
Finally, the instant filing also contains a two-page Motion for Default. This document is in proper form; therefore, the clerk shall be directed to docket it.
The court notes that Plaintiff's Motion for Default does not have the name of this court or the division in which Plaintiff's case is pending. However, the court will docket the motion nonetheless. Any future pleading filed by Plaintiff should contain the name of this court and the division (i.e., Panama City), as has been done in the caption of this order.
For these reasons, it is ORDERED that:
1. The submitted hard copy of the document (and other miscellaneous items — except Plaintiff's motion for default) shall be returned to Plaintiff by the Clerk without electronic filing. It may be resubmitted after the above-noted deficiency is corrected.
2. The clerk is directed to file Plaintiff's Motion for Default.
