IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

DARRION LARRY ALEXANDER,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-03-0288 DFL GGH P

vs.

EDWARD ALAMEIDA, JR., et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

On June 15, 2005, plaintiff filed an “objection to the defendants motion for

summary judgment.” That document was not served on defendants. Plaintiff is advised that

every document submitted to the court for consideration must be served on defendants. Fed. R.

Civ. P. 5. Documents not to be served electronically are usually served by placing a copy in the

U.S. mail. If an attorney has filed a document with the court on behalf of any defendants, then

documents submitted by plaintiff must be served on that attorney and not on the defendants. 

Every document submitted conventionally to the court (e.g., by a prisoner proceeding pro se)

must include a certificate stating the date an accurate copy of the document was mailed to

defendants or their attorney and the address to which it was mailed. See Local Rule 5-135(b) and

(c).

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that within fifteen days from the date of

this order plaintiff shall serve a copy of plaintiff’s June 15, 2005 “objection to the defendants

motion for summary judgment” on counsel for defendants and shall file proper proof of said

service. Plaintiff is cautioned that failure to comply with this order may result in the imposition

of sanctions. Plaintiff is further cautioned that failure to serve any documents subsequently filed

in this action properly, and failure to include a proper certificate of service with such filing, may

result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed.
