IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ARKINE FRESQUEZ,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-07-1847 WBS DAD P

vs.

UNKNOWN, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

Plaintiff, an inmate at Rio Consumnes Correctional Center, has filed a letter

seeking a court ordered transfer. No other pleadings have been filed by the plaintiff. In order to

commence an action in this court, plaintiff must file a complaint as required by Rule 3 of the

Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and either pay the required filing fee ($350.00) or file an

application requesting leave to proceed in forma pauperis. See 28 U.S.C. §§ 1914(a), 1915(a). 

1

The court will not issue any orders granting or denying relief until an action has been properly

commenced. Therefore, plaintiff’s request for an order mandating his transfer will be denied

without prejudice. Plaintiff will be provided the opportunity to file a complaint and to submit an

application requesting leave to proceed in forma pauperis or to submit the appropriate filing fee.
