2024-04-095STANDING ORDER M10-468: To ensure that all cases heard in the Southern District of New York are handled promptly and efficiently, all parties must keep the court apprised of any new contact information. It is a party's obligation to provide an address for service; service of court orders cannot be accomplished if a party does not update the court when a change of address occurs. Accordingly, all self-represented litigants are hereby ORDERED to inform the court of each change in their address or electronic contact information. Parties may consent to electronic service to receive notifications of court filings by email, rather than relying on regular mail delivery. Parties may also ask the court for permission to file documents electronically. Forms, including instructions for consenting to electronic service and requesting permission to file documents electronically, may be found by clicking on the hyperlinks in this order, or by accessing the forms on the court's website, nysd.uscourts.gov/forms. The procedures that follow apply only to cases filed by pro se plaintiffs. If the court receives notice from the United States Postal Service that an order has been returned to the court, or otherwise receives information that the address of record for a self-represented plaintiff is no longer valid, the court may issue an Order to Show Cause why the case should not be dismissed without prejudice for failure to comply with this order. Such order will be sent to the plaintiffs last known address and will also be viewable on the courts electronic docket. A notice directing the partys attention to this order shall be docketed (and mailed to any self-represented party that has appeared and has not consented to electronic service) upon the opening of each case or miscellaneous matter that is classified as pro se in the court's records. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Chief Judge Laura Taylor Swain on 3/18/2024) (sac) (Entered: 04/09/2024)

2024-07-0810PARTIAL DISMISSAL AND TRANSFER ORDER, Motions terminated: 4 APPLICATION for the Court to Request Counsel. filed by Angelo Carzoglio, 6 APPLICATION for the Court to Request Counsel. filed by Angelo Carzoglio. The Court dismisses the FOIA claims as brought against Stanley Klimek and James McMahon for failure to state a claim on which relief may be granted. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(ii). The Court transfers, in the interest of justice, the FOIA claims brought against Kevin Krebs, Priscilla Jones, and Matthew H. Ward to the United States District Court for the District of Columbia. 28 U.S.C. § 1404(a); see 5 U.S.C. § 552(a)(4)(B). The Court directs the Clerk of Court to terminate Plaintiff's applications for the court to request pro bono counsel. (See ECF 4, 6.) A summons shall not issue from this Court. This order closes this case. The Court certifies, pursuant to 28 U.S.C § 1915(a)(3), that any appeal from this order would not be taken in good faith, and therefore in forma pauperis status is denied for the purpose of an appeal.
