2021-10-16MINUTE ORDER: Upon consideration of Defendant's status report, Dkt. 49 , it is hereby ORDERED that Defendant shall file a further status report on or before December 17, 2021. Signed by Judge Randolph D. Moss on 10/16/2021. (lcrdm1) (Entered: 10/16/2021)
2021-11-24MINUTE ORDER: Before the Court is Plaintiff's Notice dated September 22, 2021, Dkt. 48 , in which he states that the Court i[s] not notifying [him] about... what's happening in [his] [c]ase, and that he is not receiving correspondence from the Court. Plaintiff also asks the Court to provide him with copies of Dkt. 37 and Dkt. 38 . Plaintiff's request for documents is DENIED. Plaintiff is reminded that all document requests should be directed in the first instance to the office of the Clerk of Court, not to the Court. See Min. Order (Dec. 12, 2019). Plaintiff is further reminded that he himself filed Dkt. 37 with the Court, and so the Court is under no obligation to provide him with a copy of that filing. With respect to Plaintiff's indication that he has not received any notification about what is happening in his case, Plaintiff is further reminded that the Court denied Defendant's motion to dismiss on February 27, 2020, see Dkt. 23 , and there is no motion currently pending before the Court in this matter. See Min. Order (Sept. 14, 2021). The Court continues, however, to mail copies of its orders to the address that the Court has on record for Plaintiff (which is the same address that Plaintiff provided in his September 22, 2021, Notice), and the Court has not received any indication that its mail has gone undelivered. The Court has, however, discovered that in the time since Plaintiff filed his September 22, 2021, Notice with the Court, the Bureau of Prisons has apparently moved Plaintiff to a new facility. Accordingly, the Court ORDERS that the Clerk of Court provide copies of this Order to both Plaintiff's address of record and to Plaintiff's apparent new address: FULVIO FLETE-GARCIA, R24190-038, FCI DANBURY, 33 1/2 PEMBROKE STATION, ROUTE 37, DANBURY, CT 06811. The Court further ORDERS Plaintiff to file a letter with the Court, on or before December 31, 2021, informing the Court as to whether his address has indeed changed, so that the Court may update the docket with Plaintiff's new address. Plaintiff is reminded that it is his responsibility to update the Court regarding any change in address. Signed by Judge Randolph D. Moss on 11/24/2021. (lcrdm1) (Entered: 11/24/2021)
