(1) a short and plain statement of the grounds for the court's jurisdiction,

unless the court already has jurisdiction and the claim needs no new

jurisdictional support; 

(2) a short and plain statement of the claim showing that the pleader is

entitled to relief; and 

(3) a demand for the relief sought, which may include relief in the alternative

or different types of relief.1

[he] is suing” Officer O’Kelly, Officer Smith, and Sgt. Helton.2

IT IS SO ORDERED this 13th day of January, 2010.
