FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

DWAYNE EICHLER,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-04-1108 GEB JFM P

vs.

CDC OFFICER SHERBIN, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with a civil rights action pursuant to

respond to plaintiff’s discovery requests. Good cause appearing, defendants’ request will be

granted. 

On March 7, 2006, plaintiff filed a request a form to subpoena documents. It

appears plaintiff wishes to subpoena copies of his medical records from the University of

California Davis Medical Center. Plaintiff is advised that he does not need to subpoena copies of

his own medical records. Plaintiff may obtain copies of his medical records by providing a

release. However, the medical center may charge for copies of his medical records. Plaintiff

may wish to seek the assistance of Attorney's Diversified Services (ADS),1424 21st Street,

Sacramento, CA 95814, whose phone number is 916-441-4396 to obtain these copies. Plaintiff

is advised that in forma pauperis status does not include the cost of copies.

file. So long as plaintiff follows the institutional procedures for obtaining these copies, plaintiff 

may obtain copies from the prison.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Defendants’ February 23, 2006 request for extension of time to respond to

plaintiff’s discovery requests is granted; and

2. Plaintiff’s March 7, 2006 request for a subpoena form is denied without

prejudice..
