UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

DEREK TATE,

Plaintiff,

v.

DIANA NAKASHYAN, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No.: 1:22-cv-00624 SKO (PC)

ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF’S MOTION 

FOR SCREENING AS MOOT

(Doc. 12)

Plaintiff Derek Tate is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in this 

civil rights action brought pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. 

On May 26, 2022, this Court issued its Order Regarding Plaintiff’s Motion for Screening. 

(Doc. 11.) Plaintiff was advised a motion or request for screening was not necessary as screening 

of Plaintiff’s complaint is mandatory and will occur in due course. (Id. at 1-2.) 

On May 31, 2022, Plaintiff filed a second request or motion for screening. (Doc. 12.) The 

second request is essentially identical to the first, apart from a change to the case number1and the 

date the document was signed. (Cf. Doc. 10 (5/19/22) to Doc. 12 (5/26/22).) Plaintiff’s most 

recent request is duplicative of his first; this Court’s May 26, 2022, Order resolved the issue, 

rendering Plaintiff’s second request or motion moot. 

1 This action was originally filed in the Sacramento Division of this Court. On May 24, 2022, the case was 

transferred from Sacramento to Fresno. (See Doc. 6.)

IT IS SO ORDERED.
