WESTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

FAYETTEVILLE DIVISION

CARLOS E. GUTIERREZ PLAINTIFF

v. Civil No. 05-5083

CORPORAL WESLEY KERN DEFENDANT

ORDER

On September 7, 2006, the Honorable Jimm Larry Hendren entered an order giving plaintiff

twenty days to amend his complaint to assert an individual capacity claim against the defendant and to

file a motion to substitute the personal representation of the estate of the defendant as a party defendant

in this case (Doc. 42). On September 14, 2006, plaintiff filed the motion to amend and substitute (Doc.

43). The motion is granted. 

Accordingly, the complaint is considered to be amended to assert an individual capacity claim

against Corporal Wesley Kern. Additionally, Jerah Kern, in her capacity as Personal Representative of

the Estate of Wesley Kern, is hereby substituted as a defendant in this case. The clerk is directed to

substitute Jerah Kern as Personal Representative for the Estate of Wesley Kern as a defendant

in place of Corporal Wesley Kern.

The court, having heretofore entered an order allowing the plaintiff to proceed in forma

pauperis, hereby directs the United States Marshal to serve Jerah Kern in her capacity as Personal

Representative for the Estate of Wesley Kern. It is believed Jerah Kern last resided with her

husband, Wesley Kern, at 304 E. Rogers Street, Lincoln, Arkansas 72744-9065. Jerah Kern is to

be served without prepayment of fees and costs orsecurity therefor. Jerah Kern is ordered to answer

within twenty (20) days from the date of service.

IT IS SO ORDERED this 25th day of September 2006.
