ORDER

This matter is before the Court upon the “Notice of Request for Protection from Court
Appearance by D. Christopher Lauderdale” (Doc. 64), which requests protection against the
scheduling of court appearances on certain dates. Id.
The courts of the State of North Carolina recognize secured leave requests. See Rule 26 of
the General Rules of Practice for the Superior and District Courts. Such a policy, however, is not
employed by this Court.
Therefore, while individual scheduling issues may be reviewed on a case-by-case basis
when they arise, the instant blanket request must be, and the same is hereby, respectfully
DEEMED INEFFECTIVE.
Signed: November 30, 2018
