UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

KENNETH R. HUSKEY,

Plaintiff,

v.

PAM AHLIN, et al.,

Defendants.

_____________________________________/

Case No. 1:12-cv-00569-AWI-SKO PC

ORDER DENYING MOTIONS FOR 

CLARIFICATION RE SERVICE AS MOOT

(Docs. 35 and 36)

On January 27, 2014, Plaintiff Kenneth R. Huskey filed two motions requesting 

clarification regarding service of process on Defendants Ahlin, Brown, Craig, and Young by the 

United States Marshal’s Office (“USM”). Plaintiff is entitled to rely on the USM for service of 

process because he is proceeding in forma pauperis. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(d); Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(c)(3). 

In this case, Defendants Ahlin, Brown, Craig, and Young now have counsel, and their response to 

Plaintiff’s complaint is due on or before March 4, 2014.1 (Doc. 37.) Accordingly, Plaintiff’s 

motions for clarification are HEREBY DENIED as moot.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: January 31, 2014 /s/ Sheila K. Oberto 

UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE

 

1 The Court recognizes that the lapse in time between the initial order directing service and Defendant Ahlin’s motion 

for an extension of time likely caused Plaintiff some confusion, but he may be assured that the USM and the Court 

have been communicating regarding the status of service in this case.
