DECISION AND ORDER
The Plaintiffs R.S., D.S., R.T., and G.T. filed a disclosure statement
that includes only their initials, and they have a pending motion to proceed
under a pseudonym. The Plaintiffs are advised that Civil L.R. 7.1(d) (E.D.
Wis.) provides that a party who initiates a civil action using a pseudonym

instead of the plaintiff’s actual name must file the disclosure statement in
accordance with Civil L.R. 10(c), which specifies:
A party who commences a civil action using a
pseudonym instead of the plaintiff’s actual name
must indicate in the disclosure statement filed
with the Clerk of Court under Civil L. R. 7.1 and
served on all other parties that the plaintiff is
using a pseudonym. At the same time, the party
must file, but not serve, a disclosure statement
under seal identifying the plaintiff’s actual name
and providing the other information required by
Civil L. R. 7.1. The envelope in which the
disclosure statement is filed must state
prominently that the enclosed disclosure
statement is being filed under seal pursuant to
Civil L. R. 10.
(Emphasis added). The Plaintiffs’ disclosure statement does not comply
with the requirements of Civil L.R. 10(c).

Therefore, by December 20,

2014, the Plaintiffs must file an amended disclosure statement in
accordance with Civil L.R. 10(c).
Dated at Milwaukee, Wisconsin, this 12th day of December, 2014.
SO ORDERED:
