ORDER DIRECTING RE-SERVICE

BY THE UNITED STATES MARSHAL

WITHOUT PREPAYMENT OF COSTS

As to defendant J. Daly

Plaintiff is proceeding in forma pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. The court previously

ordered plaintiff to provide information for service of process on form USM-285. Plaintiff filed the

required papers. On September 9, 2004, the United States Marshal filed a return of service unexecuted

as to defendant Daly, with a notation that J. Daly had transferred employment from Sierra Conservation

Camp to Salinas Valley State Prison (SVSP) but was no longer working at SVSP. On October 5, 2005,

the court issued an order for plaintiff to show cause why defendant Daly should not be dismissed from

the complaint. On October 21, 2005, plaintiff filed a response to the order, notifying the court that

defendant Daly currently works at SVSP and requesting that service be re-attempted. Therefore, the

United States Marshal shall be ordered to re-serve process on defendant Daly at Salinas Valley State

Prison. Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The Clerk of the Court is directed to forward the following documents to the United

States Marshal:
