GLEN CALDWELL,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-04-2693 MCE GGH PS

CHAN, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

U.S.C. § 1915. This proceeding was referred to this court by Local Rule 72-302(21), pursuant to

28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1).

Presently before the court is an amended complaint, filed May 12, 2005.1 The

determination that plaintiff may proceed in forma pauperis does not complete the required

inquiry. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2), the court is directed to dismiss the case at any time

defendant. The court cannot make this determination on the present record. Therefore, the court

reserves decision on these issues until the record is sufficiently developed. 

Good cause appearing, IT IS ORDERED that:

1. The Clerk of the Court is directed to issue forthwith, and the U.S. Marshal is

directed to serve within ninety days of the date of this order, all process pursuant to Fed. R. Civ.

P. 4, including a copy of this court’s status order, without prepayment of costs. 

2. The Clerk of the Court shall send plaintiff two USM-285 forms, one summons,

a copy of the amended complaint, an appropriate form for consent to trial by a magistrate judge,

and this court’s status order. 

5. Plaintiff is directed to supply the U.S. Marshal, within 15 days from the date

this order is filed, all information needed by the Marshal to effect service of process. The court

anticipates that, to effect service, the U.S. Marshal will require at least:

a. One completed summons;

b. One completed USM-285 form for each defendant; 

c. A copy of the endorsed filed amended complaint for each defendant,

with an extra copy for the U.S. Marshal; and

d. A copy of this court’s status order for each defendant. 

6. In the event the U.S. Marshal is unable, for any reason whatsoever, to

effectuate service on any defendant within 90 days from the date of this order, the Marshal is

directed to report that fact, and the reasons for it, to the undersigned.

7. The Clerk of the Court is directed to serve a copy of this order on the U.S.

Marshal, 501 “I” Street, Sacramento, Ca., 95814, Tel. No. (916) 930-2030.
