TU PHAM, Magistrate Judge
Before the court is Defendant Progressive Insurance Company's ("Progressive") Motion to Compel Service of Pleadings and Other Papers, filed November 14, 2005 (dkt #22). Plaintiff Eleanor Robin Bell-Flowers did not file a response. For the reasons below, Defendant's motion is GRANTED.
Bell-Flowers filed her pro se complaint against Progressive on December 17, 2004, alleging that she was discriminated against on the basis of race in the course of her employment with Progressive in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. § 2000e, et seq. On March 29, 2005, the court granted Bell Flowers leave to proceed in forma pauperis. The court ordered Bell-Flowers to "serve a copy of every further document filed in this cause on the attorney for the defendant." Order Granting Leave to Proceed In Forma Pauperis, Mar. 29, 2005.
On November 1, Bell-Flowers filed an affidavit with the court in support of her Motion Under 28 U.S.C. § 1915 for Appointment of Attorney. Bell-Flowers failed to serve this affidavit with Progressive. In the present motion, Progressive asks this court to compel Bell-Flowers to serve Progressive with a copy of this affidavit and all other pleadings and papers that she has filed or will file with the court.
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 5 (a) provides that a party must serve upon all other parties:
[E]very pleading subsequent to the original complaint unless the court otherwise orders because of numerous defendants, every paper relating to discovery required to be served upon a party unless the court otherwise orders, every written motion other than one which may be heard ex parte, and ever written notice, appearance, demand, offer of judgment, designation of record on appeal, and similar paper shall be served upon each of the parties.
Despite this requirement, and the court's order on March 29 directing Bell-Flowers to serve a copy of every document filed in this case on the attorney for Progressive, Bell-Flowers did not serve Progressive with a copy of the affidavit accompanying her November 1 motion. Thus, the court hereby ORDERS Bell-Flowers to serve Progressive with a copy of this affidavit. Bell-Flowers is further ORDERED to provide Progressive with a copy of every document that she has filed in this case since the court's March 29 order, and is further ORDERED to serve Progressive with a copy of every document that she files in this case with the court in the future.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
