UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

LARRY SMITH,

Plaintiff,

v.

RALPH DIAZ, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:20-cv-1004 CKD P

ORDER

Plaintiff has filed a motion for an extension of time to file a second amended complaint. 

Good cause appearing, that request will be granted.

Plaintiff has also filed a motion asking that the court order the warden at plaintiff’s prison 

to locate property plaintiff alleges is missing and return the property to plaintiff. It appears the 

primary issue in terms of plaintiff proceeding in this case is that plaintiff cannot locate his 

dismissed first amended complaint and the court’s screening order as to that complaint. As a onetime courtesy, and good cause appearing, the court will provide plaintiff copies of those 

documents. The court therefore denies his request for orders directed at the warden.
