CASE NO. 1:09-cv-01890-DLB (PC)

ORDER REQUIRING DEFENDANTS TO

RESPOND TO PLAINTIFF’S AMENDED

MOTION FOR PRELIMINARY

INJUNCTION WITHIN FIFTEEN DAYS

(Doc. 15)

Plaintiff Lawtis Donald Rhoden (“Plaintiff”) is a civil detainee proceeding pro se and in

forma pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. This action is proceeding

against Defendants Stephen W. Mayberg, Cynthia Radavsky, and Pam Ahlin. Pending before the

Court is Plaintiff’s amended motion for a TRO or preliminary injunction.1

Plaintiff contends that he received a February 25, 2010 Memorandum regarding the

confiscation of laptop computers as contraband, without affording Plaintiff a due process hearing

to contest the confiscation. Plaintiff contends that this confiscation will occur no later than May

30, 2010. Defendants have not yet responded to Plaintiff’s motion.

Accordingly, the Court HEREBY ORDERS that Defendants are to file a response to

Plaintiff’s amended motion for preliminary injunction within fifteen (15) days from the date of

service of this order.

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

Dated: March 24, 2010 /s/ Dennis L. Beck
