ORDER

At Wilmington, this 28th day of July 2023:

I have already discussed my concerns about apparent misrepresentations made to a member

of this Court’s Clerk’s Office. (D.I. 12). 1 In addition to that, in a submission addressing those

apparent misrepresentations (D.I. 8), counsel for the House Ways and Means Committee

needlessly included on the public docket an email from a Clerk’s Office staff member that

contained her personal contact information.

The Clerk’s Office for this Court is staffed by many hardworking and dedicated employees.

Counsel responded the Court’s order on July 25, 2023 explaining its position that no
misrepresentation was made but that there had been “an unfortunate and unintentional

issues on any given day. Their jobs are not always easy, but they do these jobs well. They have

earned my trust and my respect. I will not tolerate or countenance them being ill-used, disrespected

or lied to.

THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that, going forward, any issues or inquiries in

the above-captioned cases shall be brought to my attention and not to the Clerk’s Office. Any

such issues and inquiries shall be submitted in writing and placed on the docket. To the extent that

the rare instance arises in which a writing is not practicable, a phone call may be made to my

Chambers by an attorney who represents one of the parties in these cases or an interested third

party.

The Honorable Maryellen Noreika


United States District Judge
