NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JEREMIAH W. BALIK,

Plaintiff,

v.

TOY TALK, INC., et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 15-cv-04556-JST 

ORDER RE: PLAINTIFF’S USE OF 

THE COURT'S COURTROOM DEPUTY 

E-MAIL

Jeremiah W. Balik has filed this suit against Defendants Toy Talk and Mattel, Inc. See

ECF No. 34 (“Second Amended Complaint”). During the pendency of this case, Mr. Balik has 

sent the undersigned’s Courtroom Deputy numerous e-mails that he appears to believe are related 

to his case and should be shared with the Court. These e-mails include links to youtube.com 

videos and copies of e-mail chains pertaining to cases that are not before this Court.

The Clerk’s Office has repeatedly advised Mr. Balik that the use of the Courtroom 

Deputy’s e-mail address should be limited to inquiries related to docketing or the scheduling of 

upcoming hearings. If Mr. Balik intends to communicate anything to the Court related to the 

merits of his case, he must do so in a properly filed submission with the Court. Mr. Balik has also 

been advised that he cannot e-file documents through the use of e-mail. He must instead file 

documents by paper or through the Court’s CM/ECF system.
