IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

LORENZO GREGGE, JR., No. 2:09-CV-2561-GEB-CMK-P

Plaintiff, 

vs. ORDER

MATTHEW KATE, et al.,

Defendants.

 /

Plaintiff, a prisoner proceeding pro se, brings this civil rights action pursuant to 

42 U.S.C. § 1983. Pending before the court is plaintiff’s motion for leave to file an amended

complaint (Doc. 45). In his motion, plaintiff seeks leave to file an amended complaint which

deletes Kate as a defendant and replaces him with an individual named Robert Sillen. Plaintiff

does not, however, provide the court with a proposed amended complaint or otherwise explain

how Sillen is related to this case. To the extent plaintiff’s motion can be construed as a motion

for voluntary dismissal of defendant Kate, the request will be addressed separately with

defendants’ motion to dismiss.
