Plaintiff, Daniel P. Klahn, Sr., is a former state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma

case management system. Plaintiff indicates that he has an account he has used in the past in 

other cases. However, although Plaintiff may have an account with another court, there is no 

record of Plaintiff having an account with this Court. Thus, while his request to be allowed to efile is granted, Plaintiff must set up a new account to do so.

Accordingly, it is HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Plaintiff’s motion, filed on November 17, 2016, is GRANTED; 

2. The Clerk of the Court is directed to mail the “Petition by Pro Se Litigant for ECF 

Registration and Consent to Electronic Service” to Plaintiff;

3. Plaintiff shall be responsible for filing all documents in paper form, until such time 

as he signs and returns the Clerk’s “Petition by Pro Se Litigant” form and is issued
