IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

VINCENTE SOLOMON,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-10-2103 WBS GGH P

vs.

J. NEGRETE, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, seeks relief pursuant to 42 U.S.C. §

1983. This court, by order, filed on June 21, 2011, found the amended complaint in the instant

action appropriate for service as to thirteen defendants. Plaintiff has been unable to return the 1

documents necessary for service due at least in part to inaction on the part of one or more prison

officials, an issue that is dealt with in a separate order. On September 8, 2011, plaintiff filed a

motion, which the court construes as a request for a preliminary injunction, asking the court to

order that his pain medications be renewed. Plaintiff alleges that Dr. Tate, one of the named

defendants, has abruptly cut him off from necessary pain medications for no medical reason,
