IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

TARZA R. NELSON,

Plaintiff, CV F 07 0802 LJO SMS P 

vs. ORDER RE MOTION (DOC 13)

SHEILA COSTELLO, et al.,

Defendants.

Plaintiff has filed a motion for leave to file a second amended complaint. Good cause

appearing, Plaintiff is granted leave to file a second amended complaint. Plaintiff is cautioned

that he should set forth all of his legal claims and allegations in the second amended complaint. 

The court will not consider any other pleadings in order to make the second amended complaint

complete.

Attached to plaintiff's complaint are several exhibits, some of which appear to be original

documents. It is inappropriate to attach exhibits to a complaint. See Rule 8, Federal Rules of

Civil Procedure. Further, the court cannot serve as a repository for the parties' evidence. 

Originals or copies of evidence (i.e., prison or medical records, witness affidavits, etc.) should

not be submitted until the course of litigation brings the evidence into question (for example, on

a motion for summary judgment, at trial, or when requested by the court).
