Plaintiff Rick A. Hazeltine (“Plaintiff”) is a civil detainee proceeding pro se and in forma

pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Plaintiff is detained at Coalinga

State Hospital in Coalinga, California. Plaintiff is suing under section 1983 for the violation of his

rights under the Fourth Amendment. Plaintiff names David Montoya, Doherman, Flores, Gonzales,

Alverado, Hernandez, Moreno, Gaujardo as defendants. Plaintiff allegesthat his constitutional rights

were violated when he was subjected to random searches as a patient at Coalinga State Hospital, and

on one occasion, was physically assaulted by Defendants. Under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(d) and Federal

Rule of Civil Procedure 4(c)(3), the Court must order a U.S. Marshal to serve Defendants with a

copy of Plaintiff’s complaint and a summons because Plaintiff is proceeding in forma pauperis under

28 U.S.C. § 1915.
