ORDER denying without prejudice to reassert 40 Motion to prevent Plaintiff from proceeding anonymously. Signed by Judge Elizabeth A. Kovachevich on 4/4/2013. (SN)

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
MIDDLE DISTRICT OF FLORIDA
TAMPA DIVISION

R.W.,
Plaintiff,

vs.

CASE NO. 8:11-CIV-1326-T-EAK-AEP

Defendants.

ORDER DENYING MOTION

This cause is before the Court on the defendant’s motion to prevent Plaintiff from
proceeding anonymously (Doc. 40) and the response thereto (Doc. 46). The Court has
carefully considered the allegations of the motion and response and finds that, at this time, the
motion should be denied without prejudice to reassert at the time of trial. The Court finds that
there is at least a question as to the safety of the Plaintiff if her full name were to be revealed
at this time. So in an abundance of caution, the Court will hold this question for final
resolution until a trial is scheduled and ready to move forward. Accordingly, it is

ORDERED the motion to prevent Plaintiff from proceeding anonymously (Doc. 40)
be denied.
DONE and ORDERED in Chambers, in Tampa, Florida, this 4th day of April, 2013.
