UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
WESTERN DISTRICT OF LOUISIANA
SHREVEPORT DIVISION
SHARUNDA LYNETTE PREVO

CIVIL ACTION NO. 16-1175

VERSUS

JUDGE S. MAURICE HICKS, JR.

JIMMY TEAT

MAGISTRATE JUDGE HAYES

MEMORANDUM ORDER
Before the Court is Plaintiff’s “Request for Expedited Injunctive Relief,” which is
contained as part of the complaint. See Record Document 1. To obtain expedited
injunctive relief, Plaintiff would have to show (1) a substantial likelihood of success on the
merits, (2) a substantial threat of irreparable injury absent an injunction, (3) that the
threatened injury would exceed any harm that would flow from the injunction, and (4) that
the injunction would not undermine the public interest. See Walgreen Co. v. Hood, 275
F.3d 475, 477 (5th Cir. 2001). Because Plaintiff has failed to make such a showing, the
Request for Expedited Injunctive Relief is DENIED.
Plaintiff is ordered to serve the Defendant with the “Civil Action Complaint and
Request for Expedited Injunctive Relief” (Record Document 1) in accordance with the
Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, and to file proof of such service in the record. Once the
Defendant has appeared, the Court will take up further proceedings.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
THUS DONE AND SIGNED, in Shreveport, Louisiana, this 18th day of August,
2016.
