ORDER - Upon review of Petitioner Tam Thuy Le's ("Petitioner") Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order and Preliminary Injunction (P.I.) (ECF No. 7 ), the Court finds that she has failed to successfully show the presence of either of the two necessary gateway factors for obtaining a T.R.O. or a P.I. Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Petitioner's Motion at ECF No. 7 is DENIED insofar that it seeks relief via a temporary restraining order or a preliminary injunction. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that all remaining matters in this case remain referred to the Magistrate Judge for consideration in the first instance, and as more fully stated in said Order. Signed by Judge Stephanie L. Haines on 11/5/2025. (dlg) (Entered: 11/05/2025)
