ORDER

Pending before the Court is the Motion for Permission to Use E-Filing and
Speaker Phone [# 22]. Plaintiff requests permission to use e-filing as a result of her
alleged disability. In addition, Plaintiff requests leave to appear by speaker phone
at hearings. Pursuant to Section I.A.1 of the Administrative Procedures Governing
Filing and Service by Electronic Means (revised Jan. 1, 2012), pro se parties are
prohibited from electronic filing. In addition, this Court does not allow parties to
appear at hearings via speaker phone. Parties, or their counsel, must appear in
person for all hearings before this Court. Accordingly, the Court DENIES the
Motion [# 22].
