FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

GREGORY KUHN, 1:02-CV-05925-DLB-P

ORDER VACATING ORDER OF

Plaintiff, AUGUST 12, 2005 (Doc #115)

vs. ORDER DIRECTING SERVICE OF

SUBPOENAS BY THE UNITED

PREPAYMENT OF COSTS

Defendants. AS TO Correctional Officer LaTraille

AND John Williams

 (Radiologic Technologist)

 /

Plaintiff is proceeding in forma pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. 

The court previously ordered plaintiff to provide information for service of

subpoenas on form USM-285, a completed subpoena for each witness being commanded to

appear, and a money order made payable to each witness as required for payment of witness fees

and mileage. Plaintiff submitted the required papers. On May 11, 2005, the court forwarded to

the United States Marshal documents for serving on Correctional Officer LaTraille and Mr.

Williams (Radiologic Technologist), together with the following money orders:

(1) One money order #08-321562111 in the amount of $93.00, made payable

to LaTraille; and

(2) one money order #07979156886 in the amount of $96.25 made payable to

Mr. Williams.

Due to the fact the previous trial date was postponed, the U. S. Marshal was

notified to cease service until a new trial date was established. On July 29, 2005, the court

issued an order continuing the trial date to September 20, 2005. The money order for witness

LaTraille was returned to the court by the United States Marshal. The money order for witness

Williams has not been returned to the court.

On August 12, 2005, the court issued another order for the United States Marshal

to serve subpoenas on witnesses LaTraille and Williams. However, the August 12, 2005 order

was premature and therefore is vacated at this time. Service of the subpoenas shall go forward by

the present order.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The order of August 12, 2005, is hereby vacated;

2. The Clerk of the Court is directed to forward the following documents to

the United States Marshal:

(1) Two completed and issued subpoenas for appearance in court on

September 20, 2005, to be served on witnesses, Correctional

Officer LaTraille and John Williams (Senior Radiologic

Technologist) ;

(2) Two completed USM-285 forms; 

(3) One money order #08-321562111 in the amount of $93.00 made

payable to LaTraille.

(4) One copy of this order for each witness, plus an extra copy for the

Marshal.

is directed to serve the subpoena and money order on Correctional Officer

LaTraille and the subpoena on John Willams (Senior Radiologic

Technologist), in accordance with the provisions of Rule 45 of the Federal

Rules of Civil Procedure.

4. The U.S. Marshal is directed to retain the subpoena in their file for future

use.

5. The United States Marshal shall personally serve process and a copy of

this order upon Correctional Officer LaTraille and John Williams (Senior

Radiologic Technologist) pursuant to Rule 45 of the Federal Rules of Civil

Procedure and 28 U.S.C. § 566(c) and shall command all necessary

assistance from the California Department of Corrections (CDC) to

execute this order. The United States Marshal shall maintain the

confidentiality of all information provided by the CDC pursuant to this

order. 

6. Within ten days after personal service is effected, the United States

Marshal shall file the return of service, along with the costs subsequently

incurred in effecting service. Said costs shall be enumerated on the USM285 form and shall include the costs incurred by the Marshal's office for

photocopying additional copies of the subpoena and for preparing new

USM-285 forms, if required.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
