Filing 4

MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER by District Judge Judith C. Herrera dismissing case without prejudice. (baw)

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEW MEXICO
DAVID A. GABALDON,
Plaintiff,
v.

No. 18cv523 JCH/JHR

U.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION,
Defendant.
MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER OF DISMISSAL
THIS MATTER comes before the Court on pro se Plaintiff’s Complaint, Doc. 1, filed
June 6, 2018.
The Court has previously imposed filing restrictions on Plaintiff stating: “Plaintiff also
will be enjoined from initiating further litigation in this Court . . . unless either a licensed
attorney who is admitted to practice before this Court signs the pleading or Plaintiff first obtains
permission to proceed pro se.” Doc. 7 at 2, filed February 22, 2018, in Gabaldon v. Sedillo, No.
17cv1106 MV/JHR (D.N.M.) (describing steps Plaintiff must take to obtain permission to
proceed pro se in this Court). Plaintiff did not take the required steps to obtain permission to
proceed pro se in this Court and the Complaint is not signed by a licensed attorney who is
admitted to practice before this Court. The Court will, therefore, dismiss this case without
prejudice.
IT IS ORDERED that this case is dismissed without prejudice.
