UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT MIDDLE DISTRICT OF FLORIDA ORLANDO DIVISION

THORE HOLM HANSEN,

Plaintiff,

v. Case No: 6:25-cv-117-ACC-LHP

HORACE SMITH, JR and R. J. LARIZZA,

Defendants

ORDER (And Direction to Clerk of Court)

This cause comes before the Court following a Case Management Conference. See Doc. No. 38. The Court has attempted to hold two Case Management Conferences in this matter pursuant to the IDEAL Program; Plaintiff failed to appear at the first, and he left the second early due to technical difficulties. See Doc. Nos. 27–32, 34, 38. Because neither Case Management Conference could go forward and pursuant to the brief discussion the Court was able to have with the parties, TAKE NOTICE that this matter is no longer referred to the IDEAL Program, and the Notice of Order Referring Case to U.S. Magistrate Judge for IDEAL Program (Doc. No. 12) no longer applies in this case. It is ORDERED that the parties shall file their Case Management Report within fourteen (14) days of the date of this Order. Pursuant to discussions with the parties, it is ORDERED that the Clerk of Court is directed to add Plaintiff's email address, thore@norwegian.bz, to CM/ECF and ensure that Plaintiff receives Notices of Electronic Filings.
