Plaintiff Kevin Darnell Bryant (“Plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma

16

pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The complaint in this action was

17

filed on March 17, 2011. Plaintiff has also filed multiple motions for a preliminary injunction.

18

In an order issued separately from this order, the Court denied Plaintiff’s motions for a

19

preliminary injunction for lack of jurisdiction. Plaintiff allegedly has been threatened by correctional

20

officers in the sensitive need yard and fears for his safety. In light of the seriousness of Plaintiff’s

21

allegations that correctional officers have threatened to have Plaintiff’s throat slit while he is

22

sleeping, the Clerk’s Office shall serve courtesy copies of this order and the order denying Plaintiff’s

23

motions for a preliminary injunction on Warden Harrington at Kern Valley State Prison. The Court

24

requests that Warden Harrington have this situation looked into to ensure that Plaintiff is not being

25

placed in a situation where his life is in danger.
