CASE NO. 1:11-cv-00809-AWI-SKO PC
ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF’S MOTION
FOR AN ORDER GRANTING HIM
PREFERRED LIBRARY USER STATUS

v.
M. D. BITER, et al.,

12

(Doc. 22)
Defendants.
/

14

Plaintiff Anthony Nguyen, a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis, filed this

15

civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 on May 18, 2011. On June 20, 2011, Plaintiff filed

16

a motion seeking a court order granting him preferred library user (PLU) status.

17

Issues involving access to the law library must be raised with prison officials. The Court has

18

no jurisdiction to intervene and order that Plaintiff be granted PLU status. E.g., Summers v. Earth

19

Island Institute, 555 U.S. 488, ___, 129 S.Ct. 1142, 1149 (2009); Mayfield v. United States, 599 F.3d

20

964, 969 (9th Cir. 2010). To the extent that Plaintiff needs additional time in the future to comply

21

with a court order, he may seek an extension of time.

22

Accordingly, Plaintiff’s motion for an order granting him PLU status is HEREBY DENIED.

23
24

IT IS SO ORDERED.
