UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

VERNON WAYNE McNEAL,

Plaintiff,

v.

EVERT, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:05-cv-00441 GEB EFB P

ORDER

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding without counsel in an action brought under 42 

U.S.C. § 1983. He has filed two requests. First, plaintiff asks for a typo-free copy of his 

deposition. ECF No. 237. Plaintiff makes no showing that the typographical errors in the 

transcript affect the integrity of the questions or answers therein. The request is denied. 

Second, plaintiff asks the court to order defendants to provide him with a copy of a case 

cited as “Madrid v. Cate (U.S.D.C. N.D. Cal. C90-3094TEH).” ECF No. 241. According to 

plaintiff, the law librarian at his prison will not provide the case. The court has searched the 

Lexis legal database for the docket number and court cited by plaintiff. The database revealed 

seven orders issued in that case under the names Madrid v. Gomez, Madrid v. Woodford, and 

Madrid v. Tilton. It is not clear which of these orders plaintiff wishes to review. In deference to 

plaintiff’s pro se and incarcerated status, the court provides the following citations to all seven 

orders so that plaintiff may submit a specific request to the law librarian:

Should plaintiff be unable to obtain the case he seeks by requesting these citations from the 

librarian, he may file another motion seeking its production. Plaintiff’s request that defendants 

provide the case to him (ECF No. 241) is denied without prejudice.

So ordered.
