UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

WILLIAM V. STICKLE, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

R. COOK, et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:12-cv-1397-KJM-EFB P 

ORDER 

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding without counsel in an action brought under 42 

U.S.C. § 1983. For the second time, the United States Marshal has returned process directed to 

defendant Cook, with a notation indicating that the individual could not be located based on the 

information provided by plaintiff. See ECF Nos. 62, 74. Therefore, plaintiff must provide new 

information about how to locate defendant Cook for service of process. Plaintiff must proceed 

with haste because Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(m) requires that an action be dismissed as to a defendant not 

served within 120 days after filing the complaint unless the time is enlarged based upon a 

demonstration of good cause. If plaintiff’s access to the required information is unreasonably 

denied or delayed, plaintiff may seek judicial intervention. 

Accordingly, it is ORDERED that: 

1. The Clerk of the Court shall mail plaintiff a form USM-285.

Notice of Submission of Documents with the completed form USM-285 providing new 

instructions for service of process upon defendant Cook. 

3. Failure to comply with this order within the time allowed or to show good cause for 

such failure will result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed as to defendant Cook. 

Dated: September 2, 2014.
