The Court is concerned about why Plaintiff believes she can proceed against this agency of the Court of Inyo and why 

she believes that she can recover against both the County of Inyo and its agency. “[M]unicipal police departments and 

bureaus are generally not considered ‘persons' within the meaning of 42 U.S.C. § 1983.” United States v. Kama, 394 F.3d 

1236, 1240 (9th Cir.2005). Plaintiff is obligated to research whether the agency is amenable to suit and to act accordingly. 

Fed. R. Civ. P. 11(b)(2).

TANYA SOLESBEE,

 Plaintiff,

v.

COUNTY OF INYO, et al.,

Defendants.
