No. CIV 08-139-PHX-JAT (GEE)

REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION

The plaintiff in this action claims his Eighth Amendment rights were violated when

the defendants denied him the use of his wheelchair and medications while he was

incarcerated in the Arizona State Prison Complex in Florence, Arizona. He further claims his

treatment violated his rights under Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990.

On December 12, 2008, this court issued a service order which ordered service of the

plaintiff’s complaint and warned that “[i]f Plaintiff does not either obtain a waiver of service

of the summons or complete service of the Summons and Second Amended Complaint on

a Defendant within 120 days of the filing of the Complaint or within 60 days of the filing of

this Order, whichever is later, the action may be dismissed as to each Defendant not served.”

(Doc. # 16) (citing Fed.R.Civ.P. 4(m); LRCiv 16.2(b)(2)(B)(I)). The deadlines passed, but

the plaintiff was unable to obtain a waiver or complete service on a number of defendants:

Robert Stewart, Jane Doe Stewart, John Doe Struebeck, Jane Doe Struebeck, John Doe Long,
