UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

JAMES CURTIS KERN, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

JIM COOPER, et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:23-cv-0618 AC P 

ORDER 

 Plaintiff, a former county and current state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed a request 

for status related to the court’s May 21, 2024 order directing the United States Marshal to serve a 

subpoena on the Sacramento County Jail. ECF No. 33. Plaintiff is advised that the United States 

Marshal served the subpoena on the Sacramento County Jail on May 24, 2024. A response to the 

subpoena was therefore due by June 24, 2024. If plaintiff has not received a response to the 

subpoena, he may file a motion to compel compliance. Plaintiff is advised that any such motion 

must also be served on the Sacramento County Jail. The court also notes that it appears that 

plaintiff’s address changed after the subpoena was served1

 and it is not clear whether he notified 

the jail of his updated address.

 The subpoena listed plaintiff return address as North Kern State Prison, but it appears he is now 

housed at Pelican Bay State Prison.
