| 2023-05-23 | | MINUTE ORDER denying the plaintiff's 5 Motion for Summary Judgment and Temporary Restraining Order. First, as to the motion for summary judgment, the plaintiff has not provided any record evidence supporting the motion. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(c)(1). Second, as to the motion for a temporary restraining order--for which the requested relief is unclear--the plaintiff has submitted no proof of service, instead stating that he "will mail" the motion "by hand delivery and/or email" to certain individuals listed as counsel for defendants. Mot. at 12. Nor has the plaintiff attempted to show that ex parte relief is warranted. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 65(b)(1). The plaintiff notes that the Court has not issued any summons in this case. See Mot. at 4. There is no record on the docket, however, that the plaintiff, who is not proceeding in forma pauperis, see Dkt. 3, has "present[ed] a summons to the clerk for signature and seal." Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(b). The plaintiff may request such summons, serve the defendants, and file any motions as appropriate. So Ordered by Judge Dabney L. Friedrich on May 23, 2023. (lcdlf2) (Entered: 05/23/2023) |
| 2023-05-31 | | SUMMONS (4) Issued as to META PLATFORMS, INC., OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT & BUDGET, U.S. Attorney and U.S. Attorney General (zsl) (Entered: 05/31/2023) |
| 2023-06-01 | 7 | MOTION Issue of Summons and Service of Process by MIKE WEBB. (Attachments: # 1 Exhibit, # 2 Summons)(zed) (Entered: 06/09/2023) |
| 2023-06-21 | | MINUTE ORDER denying the plaintiff's 7 Motion for Issuance of Summons and Service of Process. The motion for issuance of summons is denied as moot because the Clerk of Court issued summons as to both defendants on May 31, 2023. The motion to appoint a United States marshal to effect service will also be denied. The Court previously denied the plaintiff's motion to proceed in forma paupers on April 12, 2023. Dkt. 3. Accordingly, because the plaintiff is not "authorized to proceed in forma pauperis," there is no requirement that the Court "must" order that a marshal effect service. Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(c)(3). Still, the Court "may," for other types of plaintiffs, "[a]t the plaintiff's request,... order that service be made by a United States marshal." Id. The plaintiff here, however, has provided no reason for the Court to do so. Most importantly, "Plaintiff does not explain why an alternative means [of service]... would not be effective." White v. Hill, No. 21-cv-2348, 2021 WL 8055764, at *4 (D.D.C. Dec. 29, 2021); see also Bogoz v. Blackwell, No. 19-cv-2790, 2021 WL 1518337, at *4 (D.D.C. Apr. 16, 2021). The plaintiff has not explained why he cannot comply with the requirements of Rule 4(i) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure as to the government defendant or why he cannot, for example, hire a process server as to the nongovernment defendant. Nor has the plaintiff pointed to any effort made thus far to cause the defendants to be served. Accordingly, the plaintiff's motion is DENIED. The plaintiff is directed to, on or before July 21, 2023, either cause process to be served upon the defendants and proof of service to be filed with the Court or establish good cause for the failure to do so. So Ordered by Judge Dabney L. Friedrich on June 21, 2023. (lcdlf2) (Entered: 06/21/2023) |

| 2023-08-17 | 20 | MOTION for Leave to Appeal in forma pauperis by MIKE WEBB. (znmw) (Entered: 08/17/2023) |
| 2023-08-18 | | MINUTE ORDER. Upon consideration of the plaintiff's 20 Motion for Leave to Appeal In Forma Pauperis, the motion is DENIED. As Judge Chutkan has previously 3 explained, the plaintiff "reports a monthly income that adequately covers his basic monthly expenses," "lists no extraordinary debt or financial obligations," and "has no dependents." The Court also notes that the plaintiff reports a total monthly income of approximately $7,400 and that he spends approximately $1,800 per month on "litigation." For these reasons, the Court finds that the plaintiff can "pay or give security for [his] costs... and still be able to provide [for] the necessities of life," McKelton v. Bruno , 428 F.2d 718, 720 (D.C. Cir. 1970), meaning that he is not "unable to pay" a filing fee for his appeal, see 28 U.S.C. 1915(a)(1). So Ordered by Judge Dabney L. Friedrich on August 18, 2023.

| 2023-09-14 | | MINUTE ORDER. Upon consideration of defendant Meta's 24 Motion for Extension of Time, the motion is GRANTED. In view of all the circumstances, the Court finds that Meta's failure to timely answer the Complaint amounts to "excusable neglect." See Cohen v. Bd. of Trustees of the Univ. of Dist. of Columbia , 819 F.3d 476, 479 (D.C. Cir. 2016). Meta shall file its answer and/or a motion to dismiss on or before October 2, 2023.

The Office shall respond to the plaintiff's Amended Complaint on or before November 9, 2023. The plaintiff shall file any opposition on or before November 30, 2023. In addition, pursuant to Fox v. Strickland , 837 F.2d 507 (D.C. Cir. 1988), the plaintiff is advised that failure to respond to the parties' Motions to Dismiss by November 30, 2023 may result in the Court (1) treating the motions as conceded, (2) ruling on the defendants' motion based on the defendants' arguments alone; or (3) dismissing the plaintiff's claims for failure to prosecute.

| 2023-11-07 | | MINUTE ORDER. The plaintiff has filed an 37 Extraordinary Motion for Injunctive Relief, which asks the Court to enjoin "the filing of a motion to dismiss by Respondent Office of Management & Budget (OMB)." "[A] plaintiff seeking a permanent injunction" must show: (1) "that [he] has suffered an irreparable injury"; (2) "that remedies available at law, such as monetary damages, are inadequate"; (3) "that, considering the balance of hardships between the plaintiff and defendant, a remedy in equity is warranted"; and (4) "that the public interest would not be disserved by a permanent injunction." eBay, Inc. v. MercExchange, LLC , 547 U.S. 388 (2006). The plaintiff has not shown that allowing OMB to file a motion to dismiss would cause him an irreparable injury; that alternative legal remedies would be inadequate; that the balance of hardships tilts in his favor; or that his proposed injunction would serve the public interest. Accordingly, the plaintiff's motion is DENIED. To the extent that the plaintiff seeks sanctions, Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(c)(2) provides that a motion for sanctions "must be served under Rule 5, but... must not be filed or presented to the court if the challenged paper, claim, defense, contention, or denial is withdrawn or appropriately corrected within 21 days after service or within another time the court sets." Because Webb has not shown (among other things) that he has given OMB 21 days to respond to his motion, the motion so construed is DENIED as premature. So Ordered by Judge Dabney L. Friedrich on November 7, 2023. (lcdlf1) (Entered: 11/07/2023) |
| 2023-11-09 | 38 | MOTION for Extension of Time to File Response to Amended Complaint and Motion for Sanctions by OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT & BUDGET. (Moustakas, John) (Entered: 11/09/2023) |
| 2023-11-09 | | MINUTE ORDER. Upon consideration of defendant Office of Management and Budget's 38 Motion for Extension of Time, the motion is GRANTED. The defendant shall respond to the plaintiff's complaint on or before December 11, 2023. So Ordered by Judge Dabney L. Friedrich on November 9, 2023. (lcdlf1) (Entered: 11/09/2023) |

| 2023-11-17 | | MINUTE ORDER. The plaintiff's 23 36 Motions for Summary Judgment and/or for Default Judgment are DENIED without prejudice as premature. Consistent with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the Court will address questions relating to summary judgment after resolving the defendants' motions to dismiss and after the conclusion of the discovery process. In view of the above, Meta's 39 Motion to Hold Summary Judgment Briefing in Abeyance is DENIED as moot. So Ordered by Judge Dabney L. Friedrich on November 17, 2023. (lcdlf1) (Entered: 11/17/2023) |

| 2024-01-15 | | MINUTE ORDER. The plaintiff's opposition to defendant Office of Management and Budget's 43 Motion to Dismiss was due on January 2, 2024. As of today, January 15, 2024, the plaintiff has not filed any opposition. As the Court has previously explained, Min. Order of Oct. 17, 2023, failure to respond to a party's Motion to Dismiss may result in the Court (1) treating the motion as conceded, (2) ruling on the defendant's motion based on the defendant's arguments alone, or (3) dismissing the plaintiff's claims for failure to prosecute. See Fox v. Strickland , 837 F.2d 507 (D.C. Cir. 1988). Accordingly, it is ORDERED that the plaintiff shall file a response to the Office of Management and Budget's Motion to Dismiss, or seek an extension of time to do so, on or before January 28, 2024, or the Court will dismiss this case for failure to prosecute.

| 2024-02-06 | | MINUTE ORDER. Upon consideration of the plaintiff's 49 Motion to Compel, the motion is DENIED. The plaintiff does not appear to have met and conferred with the defendant in accordance with this district's Local Rules, LCvR 7(m), and did not raise his motion to compel in conformity with the process outlined in Section 4 of this Court's 4 Standard Order.

| 2024-03-27 | | MINUTE ORDER. Upon consideration of the plaintiff's 61 Motion for Leave to Appeal In Forma Pauperis, the motion is DENIED. As Judge Chutkan has previously 3 explained, and as the Court affirmed in its August 18, 2023 minute order, the plaintiff "reports a monthly income that adequately covers his basic monthly expenses," "lists no extraordinary debt or financial obligations," and "has no dependents." The Court also notes that the plaintiff reports a total monthly income of approximately $7,400 and that he spends approximately $1,800 per month on "litigation." For these reasons, the Court finds that the plaintiff can "pay or give security for [his] costs... and still be able to provide [for] the necessities of life," McKelton v. Bruno, 428 F.2d 718, 720 (D.C. Cir. 1970), meaning that he is not "unable to pay" a filing fee for his appeal, see 28 U.S.C. 1915(a)(1). So Ordered by Judge Dabney L. Friedrich on March 27, 2024.

| 2024-05-14 | | MINUTE ORDER. Upon consideration of the defendant's 66 Motion for Extension of Time, the motion is GRANTED. The defendant shall respond to the plaintiff's Second Amended Complaint on or before June 17, 2024. In view of the protracted history of this matter, the Court will not be inclined to grant further extensions of time. The plaintiff's 67 68 Motions for Summary Judgment and/or Default Judgment are DENIED. As the Court has previously explained, the Court will not grant summary judgment and/or provide for the commencement of discovery until after the defendant has answered the plaintiff's complaint and/or filed a motion to dismiss. Further, any motion for default judgment is premature because the Clerk has not yet entered default against any defendant. Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(a). Finally, the plaintiff's claims against the Court are DISMISSED with prejudice. As the Court has 56 previously explained, those claims are frivolous: to the extent that the plaintiff seeks damages, his claims are barred by the Court's absolute judicial immunity, and to the extent that he seeks injunctive relief, he has not shown that he lacks an adequate remedy at law or faces a serious risk of irreparable harm. See Stump v. Sparkman, 435 U.S. 349, 356-57 (1978); Pulliam v. Allen, 466 U.S. 522, 537-38 (1984). So Ordered by Judge Dabney L. Friedrich on May 14, 2024. (lcdlf1) (Entered: 05/14/2024) |

| 2024-07-05 | | MINUTE ORDER. The plaintiff's opposition to defendant Office of Management and Budget's 72 Motion to Dismiss was due on July 1, 2024 . As of today, July 5, 2024 , the plaintiff has not filed any opposition. As the Court has repeatedly explained, see Min. Order of Oct. 17, 2023; Min. Order of Jan. 15, 2024, failure to respond to a party's Motion to Dismiss may result in the Court (1) treating the motion as conceded, (2) ruling on the defendant's motion based on the defendant's arguments alone, or (3) dismissing the plaintiff's claims for failure to prosecute. See Fox v. Strickland , 837 F.2d 507 (D.C. Cir. 1988). Accordingly, it is ORDERED that the plaintiff shall file a response to the Office of Management and Budget's Partial Motion to Dismiss, or seek an extension of time to do so, on or before July 12, 2024 , or the Court will dismiss this case for failure to prosecute.

| 2024-07-17 | 76 | NOTICE by EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT, OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT & BUDGET re 73 Motion for Sanctions (Bardo, John) (Entered: 07/17/2024) |
| 2024-07-17 | | MINUTE ORDER. The plaintiff has filed a 73 Motion for Sanctions. Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(c)(2) provides that a motion for sanctions "must be served under Rule 5, but... must not be filed or presented to the court if the challenged paper, claim, defense, contention, or denial is withdrawn or appropriately corrected within 21 days after service or within another time the court sets." Because Webb has not shown (among other things) that he has given OMB 21 days to respond to his motion, the motion so construed is DENIED as premature. So Ordered by Judge Dabney L. Friedrich on July 17, 2024. (lcdlf2) (Entered: 07/17/2024) |
