IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

HUNG PHOUC NGUYEN,

Petitioner, No. CIV S-02-2758 LKK JFM P

vs.

MIKE KNOWLES, et al.,

Respondents. ORDER

 /

On July 1, 2005, petitioner filed a letter regarding a notice of change of address

and a request for status of his case. That document was not served on respondents. Petitioner is

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

respondents. Fed. R. Civ. P. 5; Rule 11, 28 U.S.C. § 2254. As a prisoner proceeding pro se,

petitioner is required to serve all documents in this action conventionally in accordance with the

relevant provisions of Fed. R. Civ. P. 5. See Local Rule 5-135(b). Since an attorney has filed a

document with the court on behalf of respondents, documents submitted by petitioner must be

served on that attorney and not on the respondents. Fed. R. Civ. P. 5(b)(1). Conventional service

is usually accomplished by mailing a copy of the document to the attorney’s address of record. 

See Fed. R. Civ. P. 5(b)(2)(B). Petitioner must include with every document filed in this action
