UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

Plaintiff Paul Weldon proceeds in pro se in this action against defendant Rudy Anaya, a 

police officer. His first amended complaint is before the Court for screening. Taking the

allegations as true and construing the pleadings liberally, Plaintiff’s first amended complaint states 

cognizable claims for a civil rights violation under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and false imprisonment under 

California law. See Doc. 5. 

Therefore, it is hereby ORDERED:

1. The Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to issue summons as to the defendant, Rudy Anaya;

2. The Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to issue and serve Plaintiff with New Case 

Documents, including setting an Initial Scheduling Conference;

3. Plaintiff is cautioned that he must achieve service of process within the time period set 

forth in Fed. R. Civ. P. 4 or the matter may be dismissed.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
