ORDER FOR PLAINTIFF AND

DEFENDANTS TO FILE STATUS 

REPORTS WITHIN THIRTY DAYS

Kelvin X. Singleton (“Plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding with counsel in this civil 

rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Plaintiff filed the Complaint commencing this 

action on January 18, 2008. (Doc. 1.) 

This case now proceeds with Plaintiff’s Second Amended Complaint filed on February

Akanno, M.D.; S. Qamar, M.D.; Dr. Vasquez, M.D.; Registered Nurse II (RN) Ali; and RN 

Wright-Pearson (“Defendants”), on Plaintiff’s claims for deliberate indifference to his serious 

medical needs in violation of the Eighth Amendment, for delay in providing effective treatment 

for Plaintiff’s back pain, and failure to respond to Plaintiff’s eye pain and swelling. (Doc. 26.)

On February 5, 2015, the parties to this action appeared before Magistrate Judge 

Edmund F. Brennan for a settlement conference. After discussions with the Court, the case did 

not settle.
