ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR FEDERAL
INQUEST
(ECF No. 32)
Plaintiff Archie Cranford (“Plaintiff”) is a civil detainee proceeding pro se and in forma
18
pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. This action is proceeding on
19
Plaintiff’s complaint, filed May 9, 2011, against Defendant Badagon for excessive force in violation of
20
the Fourteenth Amendment. Defendant Badagon filed an answer to the complaint on July 24, 2012.
21
On August 4, 2012, the Court issued a Discovery Order and Scheduling Order, which set the deadline
22
to complete discovery as April 1, 2013, and the deadline to file dispositive motions as June 10, 2013.
23
(ECF No. 13.)
24
On November 7, 2013, Plaintiff filed the instant motion requesting a complete federal inquest
25
because he did not receive an initial copy of the Second Scheduling Order. Plaintiff complains that the
26
order arrived at Coalinga State Hospital, but was removed by unidentified Coalinga State Hospital
27
staff. (ECF No. 32.)

1
There is no basis for the Court to order a federal inquest into an allegation that Plaintiff did not
2
receive a copy of the Second Scheduling Order. On October 25, 2013, Plaintiff requested an
3
additional copy of the Second Scheduling Order. The Court granted the request and an additional
4
copy of the Second Scheduling Order was sent to Plaintiff. (ECF No. 30.) Plaintiff has indicated his
5
receipt of the additional copy. (ECF Nos. 32.) Accordingly, Plaintiff’s request for a federal inquest is
6
DENIED.
7
IT IS SO ORDERED.
