UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

CHRISTINE CORONA, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

MICHELE VERDEROSA, et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:14-cv-01473-MCE-AC 

ORDER 

 Pending before the court is pro se plaintiff’s request for electronic document submission.1 

ECF No. 31. Although the Eastern District of California is an electronic management/filing 

district, unrepresented persons are required to file and serve paper documents unless the assigned 

Judge or Magistrate Judge grants leave to utilize electronic filing. Local Rule 133(a) & (b)(2). A 

request to use electronic filing as an exception to the rule may be made as a written motion setting 

out an explanation of reasons for the requested exception. Id. 133(b)(3). Here, the pro se plaintiff 

has filed a written motion in which she requests access to the court’s electronic filing system in 

the caption. ECF No. 31. However, based on plaintiff’s request it is not clear whether she (1) has 

acquainted herself with the rules and requirements applicable to electronic filing in this court, (2) 

 

1

 Plaintiff’s request also includes an opposition to defendants Marian Tweddell and Michele 

Verderosa’s request that the court continue its Status (Pretrial Scheduling) Conference, ECF No. 

29. The court has already granted defendants’ motion and, accordingly, will not address 

plaintiff’s opposition. ECF No. 30.
