SCOTT D. JOHNSON UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE

1 To the extent the plaintiff is requesting injunctive relief, the plaintiff must establish: (1) a substantial likelihood of prevailing on the merits; (2) a substantial threat of irreparable injury if the injunction is not granted; (3) the threatened injury outweighs any harm that will result to the non-movant if the injunction is granted; and (4) the injunction will not disserve the public interest. See Ridgely v. Fed. Emergency Mgmt. Agency, 512 F.3d 727, 734 (5th Cir. 2008). The plaintiff has not addressed any of the aforementioned factors in his Motion.
