UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

AHKEEM WILLIAMS,

Plaintiff,

v.

KIM PEDRIERO, et al.,

Defendants.

_____________________________________/

Case No. 1:12-cv-00606-SKO (PC)

Appeal No. 15-16509

ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR 

TRANSCRIPT AND DIRECTING CLERK’S 

OFFICE TO SERVE ORDER ON NINTH 

CIRCUIT

(Doc. 129)

Plaintiff Ahkeem Williams, a prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis, filed this 

civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 on April 17, 2012. This action was dismissed on 

October 17, 2014, and Plaintiff’s appeal is currently pending before the United States Court of 

Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. On September 10, 2015, Plaintiff filed a motion seeking transcripts. 

Plaintiff also requests that the Court send the appellate court a copy of the docket, and he seeks 

copies of merits-related documents. 

There are no transcripts in this case, as all proceedings were on the written record. See 28 

U.S.C. §§ 753(f), 1915(c). Moreover, it is unnecessary for the Court to send a copy of the docket 

to the appellate court; it has full access to the electronic record in this case. Finally, Plaintiff’s 

request for copies of documents which relate not to the issue on appeal but to the merits of his case 

is denied. See Circuit Rules 30-1.4, 30-1.5, 30-3.
