DEFENDANTS
ORDER

Plaintiff filed this complaint on April 28, 2011, and service was ordered. On August 5, 2011,
the summons was returned unexecuted as to Defendants Holloway, Stell, and Gorden (docket entries
#22-#24). Service had been attempted in the care of the Arkansas Department of Correction
(“ADC”), but was returned because Holloway, Stell, and Gorden, are not ADC employees.
However, they may be employed by the prison’s medical contractor. Accordingly, service will be
attempted in the care of counsel for the contractor.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED THAT service is appropriate on Defendants Holloway,
Stell, and Gorden, and the United States Marshal is directed to serve a copy of the complaint and
amended complaint (docket entries #2 & #18), this order, and summons, upon them, in the care of
counsel for the prison’s medical contractor, without prepayment of fees and costs or security
therefor.
IT IS SO ORDERED this

9

day of August, 2011.
