ORDER re1 Complaint filed by Devin C. Seats. Plaintiff's request for relief includes a request for injunctive relief or a temporary restraining order (Doc. 1, p. 7). Plaintiff has not filed a separate motion for a temporary restraining order and his request for relief fails to show that he is entitled to such relief. Thus, any request for temporary restraining order is DENIED. To the extent that Plaintiff seeks such relief he would need to file a separate motion demonstrating his entitlement to preliminary relief. Signed by Chief Judge Nancy J. Rosenstengel on 4/9/2024.
