Thomas Goff (“Plaintiff”) is a former state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma
18
pauperis in this civil rights action filed pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. This action was dismissed
19
for failure to prosecute on November 8, 2019. (ECF Nos. 89 & 90).
20
On December 9, 2019, Plaintiff filed a motion with the Court, which included a request for
21
“a printout of the last two months of developments,” and “any necessary appeal packets if my
22
case(s) have been closed.” (ECF No. 91).1 Plaintiff states that he has been in and out of the
23
hospital for a variety of life-threatening infections, as well as a double concussion. He is
24
currently being held “for a probation sanction,” and is unable to obtain the mail that was sent to
25
his P.O. box.

Plaintiff makes these requests in two cases. The Court is only addressing these requests as they pertain to
this case.

1
The Court finds good cause to grant Plaintiff’s request for “a printout of the last two months
2
of developments.” As to Plaintiff’s request for an appeal packet, the Court does not have appeal
3
packets. However, given that Plaintiff is apparently attempting to appeal the dismissal of this
4
case, the Court will construe the request as a notice of appeal.

Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that:
1. The Clerk of Court is directed to treat Plaintiff’s filing at ECF No. 91 as a notice of
7
8
appeal; and
2. The Clerk of Court is directed to send Plaintiff a copy of ECF Nos. 85, 86, 88, 89, &
9
90.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
