Case No. 1:13-cv-00525-SKO (PC)

_____________________________________/
Plaintiff Durrell A. Puckett, a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis, filed
this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 on April 12, 2013. On July 9, 2014, the Court
issued a screening order authorizing service of Plaintiff’s amended complaint and directing
Plaintiff to return the service documents with twelve copies of his amended complaint. On August
25, 2014, Plaintiff returned one incomplete copy of his amended complaint with the service
documents, accompanied by a motion requesting the Court accept the documents as is or issue an
order directing the law librarian to make copies.
Plaintiff’s motion is partially granted in that the Court will provide him with another copy
of the amended complaint and the screening order, which should suffice to demonstrate that
Plaintiff has been ordered by the Court to send twelve copies of his amended complaint. Plaintiff
should also provide the law librarian with a copy of this order.

1

Accordingly, Plaintiff’s motion is HEREBY GRANTED in part, and the Clerk’s Office is

2 DIRECTED to send Plaintiff courtesy copies of his amended complaint and the second screening
3 order. (Docs. 9, 10.)

Plaintiff is GRANTED an additional thirty (30) days from the date of

4 service of this order within which to comply with the second screening order.
