Case No.: 1:12cv00861 LJO DLB (PC)
ORDER REQUIRING DEFENDANTS TO
ADDRESS STATUS OF PLAINTIFF’S
PROPERTY ACCESS WITHIN TWENTY-ONE
DAYS

Plaintiff Eric Wheeler (“Plaintiff”) is a prisoner in the custody of the California Department of

18

Corrections and Rehabilitation (“CDCR”). Plaintiff is proceeding pro se in this civil rights action

19

pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The action is currently in the discovery phase.

20

On May 5, 2014, Plaintiff filed a motion requesting assistance from the Court in obtaining

21

inmate-witness interviews. Plaintiff believes that he has been placed in Administrative Segregation in

22

retaliation for his lawsuit(s) and, as a result, cannot access inmates for interviews. Plaintiff also states

23

that his property, which contains information necessary to this action, is in R&R.
