JOUN, D.J.
Plaintiff Jamie Munchbach (“Ms. Munchbach” or “Plaintiff”) initiated this civil action by
filing an Application to Proceed in District Court without Prepaying Fees or Costs together with
a Complaint. [Doc. Nos. 1, 2]. She subsequently filed a Motion for Temporary Restraining Order
and a second Application to Proceed in District Court without Prepaying Fees or Costs. [Doc.
Nos. 4, 5].
By Memorandum and Order dated September 10, 2025, Plaintiff’s Applications to
Proceed in District Court without Prepaying Fees or Costs, [Doc. Nos. 2, 5], were allowed and
her Motion for Temporary Restraining Order, [Doc. No. 4], was denied. [Doc. No. 6]. Plaintiff
was advised that if she wished to proceed, she must file, within twenty-eight (28) days, an
amended complaint that cures the pleading deficiencies of the original complaint. [Id.]. 	She did
not file an amended complaint, but filed three letters, [Doc. Nos. 12 – 14], as well as an
emergency motion, [Doc. No. 10], which was denied on October 14, 2025. [Doc. No. 11].
