MINUTE ORDER IN CHAMBERS of the Honorable Judge Gloria M. Navarro on 4/30/2026. Pending before the Court is the 7 Motion for Asylum, Withholding of Removal, and CAT, filed by Petitioner Jaime Andres Sanchez Alarcon. Pursuant to LR IA 11-6, "[u]nless the court orders otherwise, a party who has appeared by attorney cannot while so represented appear or act in the case. This means that once an attorney makes an appearance on behalf of a party, that party may not personally file a document with the court; all filings must thereafter be made by the attorney." Petitioner is currently represented by counsel, therefore his pro se filing of the 7 Motion is impermissible. Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the 7 Motion for Asylum, Withholding of Removal, and CAT is STRICKEN. Moreover, the 7 Motion and its exhibits contain personal-data identifiers and sensitive information including Petitioner's birth date and A-Number. Thus, the Clerk of Court is kindly directed to SEAL ECF No. 7 and its exhibits. The Clerk of Court is kindly directed to send a copy of this Minute Order to counsel of record, AFPD Allie Wilson at allie_wilson@fd.org and to Petitioner at Nevada Southern Detention Center, 2190 E.
