Jesse Simkins,

Plaintiff, No. Civ. S 04-1433 DFL PAN P

vs. Order

Foothill Orthopedic Medical

Clinic, et al.,

Defendants.

-oOoPlaintiff is a prisoner proceeding in forma pauperis and

without counsel in a civil rights action. 

The United States Marshal has returned process directed to

defendant D. Sydenstricker unserved because this defendant no

longer works at the Sierra Conservation Center and the department

of corrections could not locate him or her. Plaintiff must

provide new information about where this defendant may be served

with process. Plaintiff may seek such information through

discovery, the California Public Records Act, California

Government Code § 6250, et seq., or any other means available but

must proceed with haste because Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(m) requires an

action be dismissed as to a defendant not served within 120 days

after filing the complaint unless the time is enlarged based upon

a demonstration of good cause. If plaintiff’s access to the

required information is denied or unreasonably delayed, plaintiff

may seek judicial intervention.

Accordingly:

1. The clerk of the court shall mail plaintiff one form

USM-285 and a copy of the pleading filed July 21, 2004.

2. Within 90 days from the date this order is signed,

plaintiff may submit the attached Notice of Submission of

Documents with a completed form USM-285 providing instructions

for service of process upon defendant D. Sydenstricker and two

copies of the pleading provided to plaintiff. 

3. If plaintiff does not provide new instructions for

service of process upon defendant D. Sydenstricker within the

time allowed or show good cause for such failure I will recommend

this action be dismissed as to that defendant.

So ordered.

Dated: July 7, 2005.
