CASE NO. 1:05-CV-01370-AWI-LJO-P

ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR

REFERRAL OF CLAIM TWO TO DISTRICT

ATTORNEY’S OFFICE FOR CRIMINAL

PROSECUTION

(Doc. 5)

Plaintiff Francis W. Davis (“plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma

pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On November 22, 2005, plaintiff

filed a motion seeking the referral of his second claim in this action to the District Attorney’s Office

for criminal prosecution.

The Court is not involved in the referral of matters to the District Attorney’s Office for

criminal prosecution, and must thereforedeny plaintiff’s motion. However, plaintiff is not precluded

from contacting the District Attorney’s Office himself if he believes a crime has been committed

against him. 

Based on the foregoing, plaintiff’s motion for referral of his second claim to the District

Attorney’s Office for prosecution is HEREBY DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
