Defendants.

Gordon Meador ("Plaintiff") is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis

17

with this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. ' 1983. This action proceeds on Plaintiff’s claim

18

for violation of his Eighth Amendment right to medical care against Defendants Garza, Sellers,1 Aye,

19

Moon, Nguyen, Clark, Kim, and Gill.

20

On April 5, 2017, Plaintiff filed what the Court construes as a motion for the Court to

21

contact the FBI. (ECF No. 128). Plaintiff alleges that there is a conspiracy to kill him, and

22

requests that the Court contact the FBI on his behalf. The motion does not appear to concern the

23

claims pending in this case, but rather Plaintiff’s concern that there is a conspiracy to kill him that

24

has resulted in various unsuccessful attacks over time. Plaintiff attaches a court order from

25

another pending case denying a motion for temporary restraining order based on the same

26

allegations. (ECF No. 128, at pgs. 7-8). That Court explained what Plaintiff must do to have

such a claim heard in federal court, including filing a complaint.
Plaintiff’s motion will be denied. Generally, the Court does not contact the FBI on behalf
of parties. Plaintiff’s allegations, while serious, do not relate to the complaint in this case. This
Court, like the Court that has already heard this matter, does not have the jurisdiction to
independently investigate safety concerns filed through motions such as this. If Plaintiff wishes a
court to act on the allegations he mentions, he needs to file a complaint in an appropriate court to
start a case related to this issue.
Accordingly, based on the foregoing, IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiff’s motion for the
Court to contact the FBI is DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
