BASIS

4
This matter came before the Court without oral argument on the Motion
For Protective Order and Limitation Re Discovery.
The Defendants were
represented by Amy Clemmons, Assistant Attorney General.
The Plaintiff
represented himself, pro se. The Court, having considered the pleadings on file
5
and argument of counsel in written briefs, finds good cause to enter a protective
6
order restricting contacts by Plaintiff and discovery in the litigation as set out
7
below.

II.
FINDINGS
9
Pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. Proc. 26(b) and (c), the Court finds that Plaintiff
10
has engaged in conduct with the intent to annoy, embarrass or oppress the
11
Defendants and has not acted in a professional manner during phone contacts
12
with counsel relating to the pending litigations in federal court. Good cause
13
exists to limit the plaintiff’s contacts to written communications only due to his
14
behavior and past pattern of conduct as set out in prior injunctive orders by
15
other courts.
