ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANTS= 

MOTION TO FILE VIDEO 

(Doc. 42.)

Pascual Gosselin (“Plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with this civil rights 

action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Plaintiff filed the Complaint commencing this action on 

October 12, 2010. (Doc. 1.) This case now proceeds on the First Amended Complaint filed by 

Plaintiff on October 29, 2012, against defendants Adams, Hubach, Taber, and Latraille 

(“Defendants”). (Docs. 11, 12.) 

On February 13, 2015, Defendants filed a motion to file a video of Plaintiff’s extraction 

with the court. (Doc. 42.) Plaintiff has not filed an opposition.

Defendants request leave to file a copy, on compact disk, of Plaintiff’s March 16, 2008 

cell extraction which is at issue in this lawsuit, as evidence in support of their motion for 

summary judgment.1 Defendants explain that they are unable to submit the video in electronic

format for technical reasons. Defendants argue that the filing of the video will not unduly 

prejudice Plaintiff, because Plaintiff placed the recording at issue by referring to it in the First 

Amended Complaint, and Plaintiff was permitted to view the recording during discovery.

Good cause having been presented to the court, and GOOD CAUSE APPEARING 

THEREFOR, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Defendants’ motion for leave to file a compact disk containing the recording of 

Plaintiff’s March 16, 2008 extraction, which is at issue in this lawsuit, is 

GRANTED; and

2. Defendants may file or lodge the compact disk with the Clerk of the Court.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
