Plaintiff,

CV F 04-6128 AWI DLB P

ORDER DIRECTING PLAINTIFF TO SUBMIT

USM 285 FORMS

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in this civil rights

action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On June 22, 2006, the Court issued an order finding that

plaintiff’s amended complaint stated a cognizable claim against defendant McVay for use of

excessive force in violation of the Eighth Amendment but that the complaint did not state any

other cognizable claims for relief. The Court ordered plaintiff to either file an amended

complaint or advise that he wanted to proceed only against defendant McVay on his excessive

force claim. On June 30, 2006, plaintiff advised that he wanted to proceed only against

defendant McVay.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Service is appropriate for defendant McVay.

2. The Clerk of the Court shall send plaintiff one (1) USM-285 form, one (1) summons,

an instruction sheet and a copy of the amended complaint filed September 1, 2004.

3. Within thirty days from the date of this order, plaintiff shall complete the attached

Marshal to serve the above-named defendants pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4
