MEMORANDUM OPINION. Signed by District Judge M. Hannah Lauck on 12/22/2016. (jsmi, )
IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF VIRGINIA
Richmond Division
LHF PRODUCTIONS, INC.,
Plaintiff,
V.
Civil Action No. 3:16cv283
JOHN DOES 1-25,
Defendants.
MEMORANDUM OPINION
This matter comes before the Court on six motions: (1) the Motion to File Under Seal
and to Proceed Anonymously (the "Motion to Seal") filed by Defendant John Doe 25, (ECF
No. 6); (2) the Motion to Sever filed by John Doe 25, (ECF No. 6-3);' (3) the Motion to Quash
filed by Defendant Sir Edward Thomas, Sr., (ECF No. 7); (4) the Motion for Miscellaneous
Relief filed by Plaintiff LHF Productions, Inc. ("LHF"), (ECF No. 13); (5) the Second Motion to
Extend Time Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(m) (the "Second Motion to Extend
Time") filed by LHF, (ECF No. 15); and, (6) the Third Motion to Extend Time Pursuant to
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(m) (the "Third Motion to Extend Time") filed by LHF, (ECF
No. 16).
LHF responded to the Motion to Seal, the Motion to Sever, and the Motion to Quash.
Neither John Doe 25 nor Thomas filed replies to LHF's responses or responses to LHF's
motions, and the time to do so has expired. The matters are ripe for disposition. The Court
' John Doe 25, who appears pro se, filed pleadings in an awkward manner: the Motion to
Sever appears as an attachment to the Motion to Seal, rather than as a separate motion. Given
John Doe 25's pro se status, the Court will allow the Motion to Sever, (ECF No. 6-3), to proceed
as a stand-alone motion. LHF has responded to the Motion to Sever, (ECF No. 8), making it ripe
for disposition.
