IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

LESLIE JONES,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-04-1933 DFL GGH P

vs.

LIEUTENANT E. SANDY, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

On September 9, 2005, plaintiff filed a “motion in opposition to defendants

motion to dismiss plaintiff’s complaint.” That document was not served on defendants. Plaintiff

is advised that every document submitted to the court for consideration must be served on

defendants. Fed. R. Civ. P. 5. Documents not to be served electronically are usually served by

placing a copy in the U.S. mail. If an attorney has filed a document with the court on behalf of

any defendants, then documents submitted by plaintiff must be served on that attorney and not on

the defendants. Every document submitted conventionally to the court (e.g., by a prisoner

proceeding pro se) must include a certificate stating the date an accurate copy of the document

was mailed to defendants or their attorney and the address to which it was mailed. See Local

Rule 5-135(b) and (c).

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that within fifteen days from the date of

this order plaintiff shall serve a copy of plaintiff’s September 9, 2005 “motion in opposition to

defendants motion to dismiss plaintiff’s complaint” on counsel for defendants and shall file

proper proof of said service. Plaintiff is cautioned that failure to comply with this order may

result in the imposition of sanctions. Plaintiff is further cautioned that failure to serve any

documents subsequently filed in this action properly, and failure to include a proper certificate of

service with such filing, may result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed.

DATED: 9/20/05
