ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFF’S REQUEST
FOR RETURN COPY OF DOCUMENTS
SUBMITTED ON JUNE 28, 2020
[ECF No. 90]
Plaintiff Barry Lee Brookins is appearing pro se and in forma pauperis in this civil rights
action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983.
Currently before the Court is Plaintiff’s request for a return copy of documents he submitted on
20
June 28, 2020. Plaintiff contends that due to the COVID-19 outbreak he did not have access to the
21
law library to make copies.
22
Plaintiff is advised that he is not entitled to free copies from the court. The Clerk charges $.50
23
per page for copies of documents. See 28 U.S.C. § 1914(a). Copies of up to twenty pages may be
24
made by the Clerk's Office at this court upon written request and prepayment of the copy fees. Under
25
28 U.S.C. § 2250, the Clerk is not required to furnish copies without cost to an indigent petitioner
26
except by order of the judge. To request copies of his Complaint at this juncture, Plaintiff must submit
27
a request in writing to the Clerk, a large self-addressed envelope affixed with sufficient postage, and
28
prepayment of copy costs to the Clerk. Nonetheless, the Court will make a one-time exception and
1
1
provide Plaintiff a courtesy copy of the documents filed in this action on July 7, 2020 (self-dated June
2
28, 2020) . However, any future requests for copies of documents may be summarily denied.
Accordingly, it is HEREBY ORDERED that the Clerk of Court shall provide Plaintiff a free
3
4
courtesy copy of the opposition and documents filed in this action on July 7, 2020 (ECF No. 91).
