Case No. 1:11-cv-01205-LJO-JLT (PC)

Defendants.

16

Plaintiff, John Edward Mitchell, is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma

17

pauperis, in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. ' 1983 which he filed on July 21, 2011.

18

On January 30, 2014, Plaintiff filed a document entitled "Request for Correction of Title/Name of

19

Defendant 'Pena.'" (Doc. 56.) In this request, Plaintiff seeks to correct the spelling of the name

20

of "Defendant S. Pena" to "Defendant S. Pina." It is noted that a responsive pleading was filed by

21

"Defendant S. Pina (erroneously sued as 'Pena')." (Doc. 39, 1:20.) It is appropriate to correct the

22

spelling of Defendant's name from "S. Pena" to "S. Pina" to reflect the accurate spelling of

23

Defendant's surname.
Accordingly, Plaintiff's "Request for Correction of Title/Name of Defendant 'Pena,'" filed

24
25

January 30, 2014 (Doc. 56), is HEREBY GRANTED.
