Motion for Protective Order

                                   


As always this is not legal advice. This is a motion for a protective order to make sure that Turtleboy does not use anything I give him to harass me or my clients.

PLAINTIFF’S MOTION FOR PROTECTIVE ORDER

The Pro Se Plaintiff respectfully requests that this Court issue a
protective order allowing the parties to use confidential, privileged, and/or

kept confidential and not disseminated into the public domain. In support of
this motion the Plaintiff states the following:

1.   The Defendants are bloggers who own and run a Blog doing business as Turtleboy Sports. (Exhibit 1)
2.   The Defendants are being sued by the Plaintiff for defamation. The Plaintiff alleges that the Defendants wrote in their blog that the Plaintiff is “mentally unstable”, “senile”, and “crazy”. (Exhibit 2)
3.   The Defendants’ blog and other publications routinely subject people to annoyance, embarrassment, and oppression in order to make money. (Exhibit 3)
4.   The defense counsel, Margaret M. Melican, also writes for the Defendants’ blog. What she write makes fun and ridicules private people. (Exhibit 4)
5.   The Plaintiff claim is that the alleged defamation has resulted in loss clients and income for his sole practice Advocacy. The Defendants have requested as a part of discovery private and privileged information, including information regarding Plaintiff’s clients.              (Exhibit 5)
6.   The dissemination of the private and privileged information to the public will cause the Plaintiff additional loss of clients and income.

7, Some of the discovery information requested by the Defendants’ is confidential and confidential by statute and regulation. An example of such information is the documents such as the complaints written for clients at the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination (MCAD). (Exhibit 6)

Accordingly the Plaintiff respectfully requests the Court to issue the
attached Protective Order to allow the use private, privileged, and
confidential information solely in this litigation as well as to protect such
private, privileged, and / or confidential information from inappropriate use
or dissemination outside of this litigation.

Respectfully submitted
