MINUTE ORDER
Entered by Michael E. Hegarty, United States Magistrate Judge, on June 6, 2012.
Pending before the Court are an Emergency Motion for Preliminary Injunctive Relief [filed
May 29, 2012; docket #3] and a Motion for Expedited Hearing on Emergency Motion for
Preliminary Injunctive Relief [filed May 30, 2012; docket #5]. Both motions are filed and signed
by Alfonso Carrillo, who indicates he is representing America’s Home Retention Services, Inc.
(“AHRS”). (See dockets ##3 at 11, 5 at 2.) As noted by Judge Martinez, Plaintiff is not an attorney
and is therefore not permitted to represent AHRS or any of the Juan Doe plaintiffs in this action.
(Docket #9, 2-3.) Although Mr. Carrillo is permitted to represent himself, Judge Martinez dismissed
his claims pursuant to Younger v. Harris, 401 U.S. 37 (1971). (Docket #9 at 5.) Because Mr.
Carrillo is no longer a party to this lawsuit, and because he is not authorized to represent other
plaintiffs in this action, both motions filed by Mr. Carrillo are denied without prejudice. Plaintiff
AHRS may re-file the motions upon its compliance with Judge Martinez’s May 31, 2012 Order
requiring the entity to retain counsel on or before June 22, 2012. (Docket #9.)
