LINE 4 24CV431226 Kimberly Chaffee MOTION: OTHER v. Nimisha Garg et al. Plaintiff, in pro per, files a motion seeking disclosure of settlement and sanctions against Plaintiff’s former counsel in this action. The motion fails to identify a proper statutory basis for relief or the Court’s authority to impose sanctions against non-party former counsel in this proceeding.

Given the lack of clarity in the request and the procedural posture, the Court cannot properly adjudicate the motion on the papers.

The motion is DENIED without prejudice. Parties are ordered to appear to address the scope of the motion, the relief sought, and threshold procedural issues.
