While finalizing my response in the Court of Appeals, I also had to address new developments in my federal case. The North Carolina Attorney General formally appeared on behalf of the judges and Clerk Soar and filed a Rule 12(b) motion to dismiss instead of answering the complaint, relying heavily on immunity defenses and abstention doctrines. In doing so, they falsely cited a non-existent rule and included a misleading link to justify the clerk’s refusal to release judicial names—misrepresenting it as the result of a “court order,” when no such order exists. She also pointed out another case to which showcased this wasn’t the first time Clerk Soar had a case filed against him for the exact same thing.
Despite this movement, the court has still not ruled on my pending Rule 59(e) motion for emergency injunctive relief, nor has it addressed my request for the names of the appellate judges—information critical to the integrity of my claim. I remain locked out of the CM/ECF system, even after multiple ADA-based requests, forcing me to submit paper filings and incur mounting expenses. Out of necessity, I submitted a formal Administrative Oversight Complaint to Chief Judge Catherine Eagles under § 1440.10(a) of the Guide to Judiciary Policy, documenting the procedural obstruction, mismanagement, and systemic denial of access that now threatens the viability of my case and violates my rights under the ADA and First Amendment.
