IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ROBERT WILLIS,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-06-1988 MCE KJM P

vs.

R. WEEKS,

Defendant. ORDER

 /

Plaintiff, a state prisoner, is proceeding pro se with a civil rights action pursuant

to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On October 15, 2007, the court recommended that the action be dismissed

because plaintiff had not returned the documents necessary to effect service of process. On

November 15, 2007, plaintiff filed objections to the recommendation, noting that he was sending

the documents necessary for service.

By an order filed April 25, 2007, this court ordered plaintiff to complete and

return to the court, within thirty days, the USM-285 forms and copies of his complaint, which

are required to effect service on the defendants. On November 15, 2007, plaintiff submitted the

copies of the complaint but failed to file the proper USM-285 court form.
