ASHMEEN MODIKHAN,
Plaintiff,
v.
DARROW ARONOW, ESQ., et al,
Defendant(s)
……………………………………………………………………..X
Ashmeen Modikhan, being duly sworn, makes the following affirmation under the penalties of perjury:
I Ashmeen Modikhan, as plaintiff in the above-entitled action, respectfully move this court to order defendants’ attorney, Richard F. Artura, Esq., to show cause why he should not be enjoined from bullying and/or threatening Plaintiff, until a final disposition on the merits of the above-entitled action.
I am proceeding by order to show cause rather than by notice of motion because the bullying, and threats Richard F. Artura, Esq. needs to be stopped immediately. Besides, the Court already set a hearing for the discovery matter on May 11, 2023. Proceeding via a notice of motion would therefore not be timely.
Unless the preliminary injunction and temporary restraining order are issued I will suffer immediate and irreparable injury as shown by the following facts: on or about February 7, 2013, the court suspended discovery deadline. However, since said date, Richard F. Artura, Esq. has been constantly sending Plaintiff correspondences via email demanding Plaintiff to respond to their Notice of Deposition and Discovery, or else they would seek sanctions against Plaintiff. Such bullying and threats were made in blatant disregard of the fact that the court had already suspended discovery deadlines.
It follows; unless this order is granted, I will be subjected to further bullying and threats from Richard F. Artura, Esq. The threats and bullying from Richard F. Artura, Esq. would not be taken care of adequately by winning the case in the end. Further, I will most likely win the case in the end. Notably, the Court held that my legal malpractice claim against Defendant Darren Aronow, Esq. was sufficiently pled. Lastly, the harm to me is more serious than any harm Richard F. Artura, Esq. or Defendant(s) will suffer if the judge orders a preliminary injunction to protect me. In fact, Richard F. Artura, Esq. would suffer no harm if the judge orders a preliminary injunction against Richard F. Artura, Esq.
As can be seen from the foregoing, I have no adequate remedy at law and am entitled to a restraining order and a preliminary injunction.
WHEREFORE, I respectfully request the Court issue the temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction described above, as well as such other and further relief as may be just and proper.
