UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

GUSTAVO McKENZIE,

Plaintiff,

v.

JEANNE WOODFORD, et al.,

Defendants.

 /

CASE NO. 1:06-CV-01490-AWI-SMS P

ORDER GRANTING REQUEST FOR COPY

OF COMPLAINT FILED IN THIS ACTION

(Docs. 6 and 8)

Plaintiff Gustavo McKenzie (“plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma

pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Plaintiff filed this action on

December 21, 2005, and it was transferred to this court by order filed October 25, 2006. On January

12, 2006, and April 11, 2006, plaintiff filed requests seeking a copy of his complaint.

In order to ensure return of a filed stamped copy, plaintiff must include an extra copy and a

self-addressed envelope bearing sufficient postage. Although plaintiff asserts that he sent extra

copies to the court and is only trying to obtain his rightful copy, plaintiff makes no mention of

sending a self-addressed stamped envelope with sufficient postage to cover the cost of mailing. The

court will make an exception this one time and send plaintiff a conformed copy of his complaint.

However, plaintiff is now on notice that his extra copy will be sent back to him in the future only if

it is accompanied by a self-addressed envelope bearing sufficient postage to cover the mailing cost.
