Nice Cotton. Fellow poster asked you a simple question, you gave him a BS answer.

Why just not answer the question? Why not share with the board here what replies you received from the court? Might clear up some things.

I called Judge Sullivan's chambers yesterday. I spoke to a clerk who told me the 11-CV-6760 case is closed and that it would be extremely unusual for a judge to reopen a case in response to an email from a non-party, although he stopped short of saying it was impossible. He said that the clerk who handles the case, a woman named Claire, was out. I called again and left a message for her today. If and when I am able to speak to her I will post what she tells me.

I don't understand why you wouldn't just tell me if you served the parties with a notice of motion to intervene or not. It's a simple enough question. Why make me write to the pro se department when you can just say yes or no? But it doesn't matter, because I went on PACER and learned that your letter in docket 86 was interpreted by the court as a motion to intervene which was denied in docket 92. Then in docket 95 your email to the court requesting an intervention appears to have received no response. Finally your letters in dockets 113 and 114 regarding the proposed settlement received this response in docket 115:

Since the settlement agreement is currently being reviewed by the Bankruptcy Court (Doc. No. 111), the Court will take no action on these submissions at this time.

I looked on EPIQ and found that in the order in docket 52002 the Bankruptcy Court approved the settlement agreement. Subsequently in District Court docket 117 the case was dismissed with prejudice.

Forgive me if I am restating facts known to all here, but in summary, the court denied your first attempt to intervene, ignored your second, and took no action on your third submission of comments regarding the settlement agreement, not even interpreting them as a motion to intervene. There seems to be a lot of hope placed on the words "the Court will take no action on these submissions at this time." But with the settlement approved and the case dismissed with prejudice, why do you believe there is still an active intervention?
