UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

SAM JOHNSON, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

JENNIFER SHAFFER, et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:12-cv-1059 KJM AC P 

ORDER RE: 

PRO SE PRISONER FILINGS 

 Plaintiffs in this civil rights action comprise a certified class of state prisoners proceeding 

with counsel. The court occasionally receives requests from pro se prisoners to join the plaintiff 

class, or with questions concerning this case. Considerations of case management and judicial 

economy preclude the filing of such documents. Members of the plaintiff class may proceed in 

this action only through their counsel of record. 

 Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that: 

 1. The Clerk of Court shall not file in this action any documents submitted by prisoners 

proceeding pro se. 

 2. All documents bearing this case name and/or number which are submitted to the Clerk 

of Court by a prisoner proceeding pro se shall be returned to the prisoner, together with a copy of 

this order.
