The self-represented plaintiff brought a motion to set aside a 2002 dismissal order for non-appearance and to reinstate the action.
Several defendants requested an adjournment to retrieve their files, which the plaintiff opposed.
The court dismissed the motion without prejudice, noting that the plaintiff failed to serve all relevant defendants, did not include the dismissal order in the motion materials, and provided little evidence explaining the delay since a vexatious litigant order against him was rescinded in 2010.
