UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

TELESFORO QUINTANILLA,

Plaintiff,

v.

SISKIYOU CONTY JAIL, et al,

Defendants.

No. 2:15-cv-1115 CKD P

ORDER and

FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS 

 Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis with an action filed 

pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Plaintiff’s third amended complaint is before the court for 

screening pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(a). The court has conducted the required screening and 

finds that the third amended complaint states a claim upon which plaintiff may proceed under the 

Eighth Amendment for denial of medical care against defendant Kolpakov. With respect to the 

other claims and defendants identified in plaintiff’s third amended complaint, plaintiff has failed 

to allege facts which amount to actionable claims arising under the Constitution or other federal 

law.1

 Plaintiff does allege facts suggesting he may have a claim for negligence under California law 

concerning plaintiff’s slipping and falling on a wet floor. However, plaintiff has failed to plead 

compliance with the California Tort Claims Act, which he must do to proceed on claims arising 

under California law in this court. State v. Superior Court, 32 Cal. 4th, 1234, 1239 (2004). As to 

other claims and defendants, plaintiff has twice been advised of the deficiencies in his allegations. 

See ECF Nos. 9 and 12.

 In accordance with the above, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that: 

 1. Service is appropriate for defendant Kolpakov. 

 2. The Clerk of the Court shall send plaintiff a USM-285 form, summons, an instruction 

sheet and a copy of the third amended complaint. 

 3. Within thirty days from the date of this order, plaintiff shall complete the attached 

Notice of Submission of Documents and submit the following documents to the court: 

a. The completed Notice of Submission of Documents; 

 b. One completed summons; 

 c. One completed USM-285 form; and 

 d. Two copies of the third amended complaint. 

 4. Plaintiff need not attempt service on defendant Kolpakov and need not request waiver 

of service. Upon receipt of the above-described documents, the court will direct the United States 

Marshal to serve defendant Kalpakov pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4 without 

payment of costs. 

 5. The Clerk of the Court shall assign a district court judge to this case. 

 IT IS HEREBY RECOMMENDED that all defendants other than defendant Kolpakov be 

dismissed. 

 These findings and recommendations are submitted to the United States District Judge 

assigned to the case, pursuant to the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(l). Within fourteen days 

after being served with these findings and recommendations, plaintiff may file written objections 

with the court. The document should be captioned “Objections to Magistrate Judge’s Findings 

and Recommendations.” Plaintiff is advised that failure to file objections within the specified 

time may waive the right to appeal the District Court’s order. Martinez v. Ylst, 951 F.2d 1153 

(9th Cir. 1991).
