 Of the twenty defendants plaintiff has named, only three are identified as located in 1

Sacramento. However, these three, N. Grannis, Anita Mitchell, and Theresa Kimura, appear to

be sued largely in a nominal and/or respondeat superior capacity. As plaintiff is seeking

monetary damages only, these individuals are likely to be subject to dismissal from this 42

U.S.C. § 1983 action. Fayle v. Stapley, 607 F.2d 858, 862 (9th Cir. 1979).
