Plaintiff,

UNITED STATES CITIZENSHIP AND
IMMIGRATION SERVICES, et al.,

ORDER STRIKING PLAINTIFF’S
FILING OF OCTOBER 14, 2012
(Docket Nos. 162)

Defendants.
___________________________________/

15

On October 12, 2012, this Court issued an order in which it, inter alia, barred Plaintiff from

16

making additional filings regarding the transportation letter with two limited exceptions. In spite of

17

this Court’s ruling, Plaintiff -- only two days later -- submitted yet another filing related to the issue

18

of the transportation letter. The Court therefore STRIKES Plaintiff’s filing of October 14, 2012,

19

from the record.

20

The Court also notes that Plaintiff’s filing adds nothing to the merits of the case. Although

21

Plaintiff has in forma pauperis status, that simply alleviates him from paying the filing and service-

22

of-process fees. That puts no imposition on the Court -- or on Defendants -- to fund the cost of his

23

return to the United States, particularly given that Plaintiff voluntarily left the country.

24

IT IS SO ORDERED.
