UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MICHAEL LENOIR SMITH,

Plaintiff,

v.

DARREN ALBEE, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:15-cv-1598 KJN P

ORDER

On February 10, 2016, plaintiff filed a motion requesting that prison officials provide 

plaintiff with his legal files, and notified the court of his change of address to Tehachapi. Since 

that filing, however, plaintiff has been transferred to the Sacramento County Jail, and then to 

High Desert State Prison. Because plaintiff is no longer housed in Tehachapi, his request for 

court order directed to prison officials is now moot. However, due to plaintiff’s frequent 

transfers, the court will grant him additional time in which to file his amended complaint. 

Good cause appearing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Plaintiff’s motion (ECF No. 17) is denied without prejudice; and

2. Plaintiff is granted up to and including May 2, 2016, in which to file his amended 

complaint. Failure to file an amended complaint will result in a recommendation that this action 

be dismissed.

Dated: March 23, 2016
