UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JOSEPH WHITAKER,

Plaintiff,

v.

DALEY, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:13-cv-00501 GEB DAD P

ORDER

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

action filed pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. By order filed August 13, 2014, the court dismissed 

defendant Scott from this action, and directed the United States Marshal to serve process on 

defendants Daley, Johnson-Dovey, Jubbs, Konrad, and Lacy. (See ECF No. 37.) Since then,

plaintiff has filed three documents with the court inquiring into the status of this case. (ECF Nos. 

39-41.) Plaintiff is informed that service of process, particularly on five defendants, may take 

several weeks or even months. Plaintiff will be informed when service of process is completed, 

when he is served with defendants’ responsive pleading(s) or by further order of this court. Until 

such time, plaintiff is advised to refrain from submitting additional filings to the court.

Dated: November 7, 2014
