IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

CHRISTOPHER KYLE PRATER,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-06-1993 FCD GGH P

vs.

MTA OLIVER, et al., ORDER 

Defendants.

 /

By Order, filed on September 25, 2007, defendants’ counsel was directed to 

inform the court whether defendant MTA Oliver had received a request for waiver of service 1

and had waived service of process. Counsel provided a timely response indicating that the

CDCR does not employ MTA’s any longer, and further stating that MTA Oliver “is believed to 2

no longer be employed by the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation and has

not been located.” Thus, on information and belief, defendant’s counsel concluded that

defendant Oliver has not received a request for waiver of service and has not waived service.

There is some vagueness in the response and the court now directs defendants’

counsel to query the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation to ascertain whether or not

defendant Oliver is, in fact, no longer employed by CDCR. If defendant Oliver is still employed

with the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation or any other California state agency,

counsel shall provide the business address to plaintiff and the court. If counsel is otherwise

informed of the business address of defendant Oliver, counsel shall provide the address to

plaintiff and this court. In the event that counsel, after conducting a good faith inquiry, cannot

ascertain the business address of defendant Oliver, counsel shall so inform the court. 

Defendants’ counsel shall file and serve the appropriate response within twenty days of the file

date of this order.
