UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

FRANK WELLS,

Plaintiff,

v.

ROSA GONZALES,

Defendant.

Case No. 1:17-cv-01240-DAD-EPG (PC)

ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF’S 

REQUEST FOR PRECEDENT OF LIKE 

CLAIMS SETTLEMENTS

(ECF NO. 85)

Frank Wells (“Plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in this 

civil rights action. 

On February 10, 2020, Plaintiff filed a “request for precedent of like claims settlements....” 

(ECF No. 85). Plaintiff appears to ask the Court to order Defendant to provide him with three 

examples of settlements in cases similar to his.

The Court will not order Defendant to provide Plaintiff with examples of settlements in 

cases similar to his (although Defendant may do so voluntarily). The Court notes that the judge 

handling the settlement conference may discuss prior verdicts and/or settlements in similar cases 

with Plaintiff at the settlement conference.

Based on the foregoing, IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiff’s request (ECF No. 85) is DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: February 13, 2020 /s/
