UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

SHERMAN D. MANNING, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

M. BUNNELL, et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:12-cv-2440 MCE AC P 

ORDER 

 Plaintiff wrote a letter to the undersigned dated August 13, 2014, with the words 

“Emergency Motion!” written across the top. Plaintiff is advised that a letter to the U.S. 

Magistrate Judge assigned to the case is not the proper way to present a motion. All motions 

must be submitted to the Clerk for filing and served on the defendants. 

 Plaintiff seeks an order preventing his transfer to another institution. Transfers are an 

ordinary incident of prison life. Plaintiff’s request for an order prohibiting his transfer is 

unsupported by any evidence that would support preliminary injunctive relief. Accordingly, the 

August 13, 2014 letter will be disregarded. 

 IT IS SO ORDERED. 

DATED: August 20, 2014 

Case 2:12-cv-02440-MCE-AC Document 148 Filed 08/21/14 Page 1 of 1
