UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

CECILIA FRAHER,

Plaintiff,

v.

SURYDEVARA,

Defendant.

 /

CASE NO. 1:06-cv-01120-AWI-NEW (DLB) PC

ORDER DENYING MOTION TO SUBMIT

ADDITIONAL EVIDENCE

(Doc. 17)

Plaintiff Cecilia Fraher (“plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma

pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On March 19, 2007, plaintiff filed

a motion seeking leave to submit additional evidence in support of her claims.

The federal system is one of notice pleading, and it is unnecessary at this stage of the

litigation for plaintiff to be submitting documentary evidence in support of her claim. Fed. R. Civ.

P. 8(a). The court cannot serve as a repository for the parties’ evidence (e.g., prison or medical

records, witness affidavits, etc.). The parties may not file evidence with the court until the course

of litigation brings the evidence into question (for example, on a motion for summary judgment, at

trial, or when requested by the court). Further, although parties may attach exhibitsto their pleadings

if they choose, the exhibits must be attached at the time of submission. Fed. R. Civ. P. 10(c).

Plaintiff may not later add exhibits to her complaint, piecemeal.
