UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

Plaintiff Bernard Spencer is appearing pro se and in forma pauperis in this civil rights action 

pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. 

On May 7, 2015, the Court ordered the United States marshal to service the amended 

complaint on Defendants E. Dodson, A. Escobedo, and L. Zoucha. (ECF No. 29.) 

On June 24, 2015, Plaintiff filed a notice to the Court indicating that Defendants have not yet 

responded to the complaint. (ECF No. 30.) 

Pursuant to the Court’s May 7, 2015, service order the Marshals Service was directed to notify 

the Defendants of the commencement of this action and request waivers of service to be returned. If 

the waivers of service are not returned within sixty days, the Marshals Service was directed to 

personally serve Defendants and returned the USM-285 forms within ten days after service is 

accomplished. To date, the Court has not received a returned waiver of service or USM-285 form for 

any Defendant. Thus, the United States marshal is still in the process of serving Defendants and 

BERNARD SPENCER,

 Plaintiff,

v.

A. ESCOBEDO, et al.,

Defendants.
