IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

BENJAMIN ELLIS, No. CIV S-04-1483-LKK-CMK-P

Plaintiff, 

vs. ORDER

ALBONICO, et al.,

Defendants.

 /

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

to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Pending before the court is plaintiff’s request for subpoena forms (Doc.

63). Given that discovery is closed, the subpoenas plaintiff plans to serve must relate to

witnesses who will be called at trial. Plaintiff is advised that subpoena forms may be submitted

to the U.S. Marshal up to two weeks prior to trial. In no event should subpoena forms be

submitted prior to the trial confirmation hearing (which will be set at the time of the pretrial

conference). Plaintiff must also submit witness fees and travel expenses for each unincarcerated

witness to the U.S. Marshal with the completed subpoena forms. Plaintiff should consult the

court’s August 4, 2005, initial scheduling order for a detailed outline of the procedures to follow

regarding trial witnesses. In the meantime, the court will grant plaintiff’s request for forms.
