UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

EDWARD B. SPENCER,

Plaintiff,

v.

STUART SHERMAN,

Defendant.

Case No. 1:19-cv-00420-EPG (PC)

ORDER RE: PLAINTIFF’S NOTICE FILED

FEBRUARY 7, 2020

 (ECF NO. 25)

On February 7, 2020, Plaintiff filed a notice regarding current status of settlement 

agreement. (ECF No. 25). Plaintiff alleges that he has not received any communication 

indicating that the settlement funds were placed in his account, even though the case settled over 

six months ago. Plaintiff asks the Court to “do what’s appropriate whereas Plaintiff receive his 

said amount.” (Id. at 1).

On February 24, 2020, defense counsel filed a response. (ECF No. 27). According to 

defense counsel, the settlement funds “were applied to Plaintiff’s restitution balance, and any 

excess deposited in Plaintiff’s inmate trust account, on January 27, 2020.” (Id. at 3). 

It appears that Plaintiff has received the settlement funds. Accordingly, the Court will 

take no action at this time. If Plaintiff did not receive the settlement funds, he may file an 

appropriate motion.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: February 25, 2020 /s/
