ORDER REQUIRING PLAINTIFF

TO SUBMIT STATUS REPORT 

Plaintiff Patrick O’Dell (“Plaintiff”) is proceeding pro se in this action. When Plaintiff

filed his complaint on November 2, 2009, he stated that he was not incarcerated. Pursuant to

Court order, Plaintiff submitted an application to proceed in forma pauperis on March 29, 2010. 

According to the application, Plaintiff is now incarcerated at the Inyo County Jail. He states,

however, that he is self-employed and earns $300 per week.

It is therefore unclear whether Plaintiff is incarcerated. While it does not affect the merits

of Plaintiff’s complaint, whether Plaintiff is incarcerated impacts how the Court handles the

action from a procedural standpoint.

Accordingly, Plaintiff is ORDERED to submit a status report within thirty (30) days of

the date of this order. Plaintiff must indicate whether he is incarcerated and if he is, for how

long.
