UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

DAVID E. MACKEY,

Plaintiff,

v.

DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY 

INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE 

APPEALS OFFICE, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:20-cv-00624-BAM (PC)

ORDER DIRECTING CLERK OF THE 

COURT TO ADMINISTRATIVELY 

REDESIGNATE CASE AS A 440 CIVIL

ACTION

Plaintiff David E. Mackey (“Plaintiff”) is a civil detainee proceeding pro se in this case. 

On April 16, 2020, Plaintiff filed the complaint commencing this action, (ECF No. 1), together 

with a motion to proceed in forma pauperis, (ECF No. 2), in the Sacramento Division of the 

United States District Court in the Eastern District of California. The Clerk designated the case 

as a prisoner civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The case was then transferred to 

the Fresno Division. (ECF No. 4.) 

Upon further review by the Court, it has been determined that the present action is a 

regular civil action and does not involve a prisoner or detainee litigating the conditions of his 

confinement.
