ORDERED that, as stated in the proceedings held before this Court on November 29, 2018 (ECF No. 8), Plaintiff's Motion for Temporary Restraining Order, Emergency Injunctive Relief, and Order to Show Cause (ECF No. 6) is DENIED because Plaintiff failed to show a reasonable probability of eventual success in the underlying litigation.
