IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

GEORGE LEE,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-06-0813 FCD KJM P

vs.

TOM CAREY, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis with an action

filed pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. By order filed June 14, 2007, plaintiff's amended complaint

was dismissed with leave to file a second amended complaint. Plaintiff has now filed a second

amended complaint.

The second amended complaint states a cognizable claim for relief pursuant to 42

U.S.C. § 1983 and 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b). If the allegations of the amended complaint are

proven, plaintiff has a reasonable opportunity to prevail on the merits of his Americans With

Disabilities Act Claims against defendant Stufflebeam. Therefore, the court will order service of

process on defendant Stufflebeam. With respect to the other claims and defendants identified in

plaintiff’s second amended complaint, plaintiff’s second amended complaint fails to state a claim

upon which relief can be granted.
