Opinion
Civil Action No. 04-1806.
March 21, 2007
ORDER
In accordance with the Court's Order of February 20, 2007 (doc. no. 104), this Court has made contact with Phyllis Jin, Esquire, who agreed to accept individual representation of the Plaintiffs. As stated by Attorney Jin during the conference held on October 27, 2006, the requirements for class certification are not present in this action. During the conference, Attorney Jin was instructed to make a written motion to voluntarily dismiss this case and re-file individual cases. Attorney Jin has advised the Court that she has been unable to meet with the Plaintiffs because she is not on each of their approved visitor's list at their individual places of incarceration. In order to facilitate representation by Attorney Jin, each Plaintiff is instructed to name Attorney Jin as a visitor at their respective places of confinement. As Plaintiffs have counsel, their individual pro se motions will be denied.
AND NOW, this 21st day of March, 2007:
IT IS ORDERED that each Plaintiff designate Attorney Jin as an approved visitor at their respective places of confinement no later than April 10, 2007. Any Plaintiff who fails to name Attorney Jin as an approved visitor by April 10, 2007, will be viewed by the Court as having abandoned this action.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Attorney Jin file a written motion to withdraw this action by May 2, 2007.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Attorney Jin file individual complaints on behalf of the remaining Plaintiffs no later than July 2, 2007. Each individual complaint will be docketed at a new civil action number, without prejudice to the limitations period applicable to each Plaintiff's claims. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the pro se motions filed by the individual Plaintiffs at doc. nos. 105-107 and 109-118 are DENIED.
