NOTICE OF IMPROPER COMMUNICATION WITH THE COURT. On July 13, 2021, the Court received the attached email from George Benavides seeking permission to file a complaint in this action because Twitter has shutdown or blocked his account. Local Rule 7.7 prohibits communication with the Court unless invited or directed by the presiding Judge. S.D. Fla. L.R. 7.7. The Court has neither invited nor directed Mr. Benavides to correspond with chambers and thus, the communication is a violation of the Local Rules. Moreover, to the extent Mr. Benavides requests that the Court construe the correspondence as a motion, that request is denied. Local Rule 7.1(a)(3) requires that prior to filing a motion in a civil case, the movant shall confer with all parties and nonparties who may be affected by the relief sought. Here, it does not appear that Mr. Benavides has made any attempts to confer with the parties. The Clerk of the Court is directed to mail a copy of this order to Mr. Benavides at 1308 E. Common Street, Suite 205, Box 408, New Braunfels, Texas, 78130. Signed by Judge Robert N. Scola, Jr. See attached document for full details. (agn) (Entered: 07/14/2021)

MOTION for Leave to File Brief as Amici Curiae On the Issue of Standing In Partial Support and In Partial Opposition of Plaintiffs by Chris Sevier, John Gunter, Jr, Rich Penkoski. (ail) (Entered: 07/19/2021)
MERRICK GARLAND: PAPERLESS ORDER: The Court grants 33 the Government's Motion to Stay Intervention Deadline. On July 21, 2021, the Court certified a constitutional question to the U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland, which provided "sixty (60) days... to intervene on behalf of the United States in this action." In its motion, the Government explains that the Plaintiffs have not filed any motion relating to the constitutional questions at issue and, therefore, requests that the Court stay the Government's deadline to intervene until the Parties have "the opportunity to confer and submit a proposed schedule for any anticipated briefing that would raise the constitutional challenge." [33 at 2] The Government's request is unopposed. A stay of the intervention deadline is warranted in light of the fact that Plaintiffs have yet to file any motion raising the constitutional issues that were certified to the U.S. Attorney General. Accordingly, the Government's motion is granted. The deadline for the Government to intervene in the above-captioned case is hereby stayed. The Court will reopen the deadline for the Government to intervene once the Plaintiffs have filed a motion raising the constitutional issues that were certified to the U.S. Attorney General. The motion indicates that the Government and the Plaintiffs have discussed a potential briefing schedule for an anticipated motion for a preliminary injunction. Thus, the Government and the Plaintiffs are hereby directed to inform the Court as to any agreement reached with respect to how long it will take for the Government to respond to any forthcoming motion, if it so chooses. Signed by Judge Robert N. Scola, Jr. (agn) (Entered: 08/27/2021)
PAPERLESS ORDER: The Court denies 48 nonparty Cris Ericson's motion for permission to file a subclass in this action. The Court construes this motion as a motion to intervene. The motion is denied for failure to confer with the parties affected by the relief sought as required by Local Rule 7.1(a)(3). Mr. Ericson attempts to bring claims on his own behalf and on behalf of a third party. However, the motion concedes that Mr. Ericson is unsure if that third party has suffered any harm. It would appear that Mr. Ericson has failed to confer with the parties in this case and with the third party mentioned in his motion. For these reasons, the motion is denied. The Court also denies as moot 49 Mr. Ericson's duplicative motion for permission to file subclass. Signed by Judge Robert N. Scola, Jr. (agn) (Entered: 09/10/2021)
