ONA T. WANG, United States Magistrate Judge:
The Court is in receipt of ECF Nos. 87 and 88. Where a party appears pro se, the Court
must construe their pleadings broadly and interpret them to raise the strongest arguments that
they suggest. Graham v. Henderson, 89 F.3d 75, 79 (2d Cir.1996). The Court construes pro se
Plaintiff’s letter as a motion for expedited discovery of: (1) the documents contained in SED File
#26, 3654; (2) emails between Eric Friedman and Principal Gabbard discussing the denial of
Plaintiff’s car accommodation; and, (3) Plaintiff’s medical record. (ECF 87 at 1, 2). The parties
are directed to meet and confer on if Defendant can expedite the aforementioned documents.
The parties are further directed to file a joint status letter by June 2, 2023, to be filed on the
docket by counsel for Defendant.
The Clerk of Court is respectfully directed to mail a copy of this Order to the pro se
Plaintiff.
SO ORDERED.
