Upon entry on the docket, this case was designated as a prisoner case. Pursuant to Local Rule 101, prisoner cases are defined as actions brought in propria persona by a person in custody who is seeking any relief authorized by 42 U.S.C. § 1981 et seq. Though this is an action brought on behalf of a prisoner seeking relief pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983, it was filed by retained counsel. Plaintiff is not proceeding in propria persona. This should therefore be designated as a regular civil action. ///////////////// DEPT.
