PLAINTIFF
CASE NO. 3:17-CV-00087 KGB/BD

STEVE ROREX, et al.

DEFENDANTS
ORDER

Richard Morrow, an inmate at the Poinsett County Detention Center (“Detention
Center”), filed this lawsuit without the help of a lawyer under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. (Docket
entry #2) Mr. Morrow alleges that Defendants have forced him to endure
unconstitutional conditions of confinement. He names four individuals as Defendants.
Mr. Morrow cannot move forward on his claims, as written, because the complaint
is missing critical information. He must file an amended complaint to clarify his claims
or risk dismissal of some or all of his claims.
In the amended complaint, Mr. Morrow must explain how each Defendant was
aware of the alleged unconstitutional conditions at the Detention Center and state how he
was injured as a result of the conditions.
Mr. Morrow has thirty days to file an amended complaint. His failure to comply
with this Court’s order may result in the dismissal of some or all of his claims, without
prejudice. Local Rule 5.5.

IT IS SO ORDERED, this 24th day of April, 2017.
