Plaintiff is the beneficiary of a trust whose claims pertain to the distribution of the trust’s assets and use of those assets to pay legal fees. These matters are the subject of a separate civil action which the Court recently dismissed, see Berman v. Draper, No. 1:21-cv-1526 (D.D.C. Aug. 5, 2021), and plaintiff has filed a notice of appeal on August 26, 2021.
