MALCOLM Y. WRIGHT,

Plaintiff,

Defendants.

 /

1:10-cv-00011-AWI-GSA-PC

ORDER FOR PLAINTIFF TO SUBMIT

ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTS REQUIRED

FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS, WITHIN

THIRTY DAYS

 

Plaintiff Malcolm Y. Wright (“Plaintiff”) is an inmate currently in North Carolina state

custody who is proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to Bivens

vs. Six Unknown Agents, 403 U.S. 388 (1971). This action now proceeds on the First Amended

Complaint filed on January 13, 2011. (Doc. 10.) The Court screened the First Amended Complaint

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A and found that Plaintiff states cognizable claims for relief under §

1983 against three Defendants: Warden Smith, Lt. Gonzales, and Lt. Miller. 

On December 12, 2011, the Court issued an order finding service of the First Amended

Complaint appropriate and forwarding service documents to Plaintiff for completion and return. 

(Doc. 17.) In the order, Plaintiff was directed to return to the Court:

a. Completed summonses for the three Defendants;

b. One completed USM-285 form for each of the three Defendants; and 

c. Four (4) copies of the endorsed complaint filed on January 13, 2011.

The Court sent Plaintiff a copy of the First Amended Complaint from which to make copies to return

to the Court.

On December 27, 2011, Plaintiff submitted service documents to the Court. (Doc. 18.) 

However, Plaintiff did not submit all of the documents as instructed in the Court’s order. Plaintiff

failed to submit any copies of the First Amended Complaint. 

To enable service to go forward, Plaintiff must submit the missing documents to the Court. 

Plaintiff shall be granted thirty days in which to submit four (4) copies of the endorsed First

Amended Complaint, filed on January 13, 2011, to the Court.

Accordingly, it is HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The Clerk of Court shall send to Plaintiff a Notice of Submission of Documents

form;

2. Within thirty (30) days from the date of service of this order, Plaintiff shall complete

the Notice of Submission of Documents form and submit the completed Notice to the

Court with four (4) copies of the endorsed First Amended Complaint, filed on

January 13, 2011; and

3. The failure to comply with this order will result in a recommendation that this action

be dismissed.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
