UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

TREMAYNE DEON CARROLL, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

SPEARMAN, Warden, et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:16-cv-2493-EFB P 

ORDER 

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding without counsel. On October 13, 2016, an action 

was opened in this court when plaintiff submitted a one-page filing entitled “Petition for 

Preliminary Injunctive Relief, Temporary Restraining Order, Appointment of Counsel.” Carroll 

v. Spearman, No. 2:16-cv-2443-EFB (E.D. Cal.). On October 19, 2016, this action was opened 

when plaintiff submitted a civil rights complaint, a motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis, 

and a request for appointment of counsel. ECF Nos. 1, 2, 3. Upon review, it appears that this 

action was opened as a new case in error and that the Clerk of the Court should have filed 

plaintiff’s pleadings in the already pending action, Case No. 2:16-cv-2443-EFB. Accordingly, IT 

IS HEREBY ORDERED that: 

1. The Clerk of the Court is directed to re-file ECF Nos. 1, 2, and 3 in Case No. 2:16-cv2443-EFB.
