Plaintiff,
Case No. 1:18-cv-00832-DAD-BAM (PC)
ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR STAMPS
AND ENVELOPES
v.
(ECF No. 31)
STATE OF CALIFORNIA, et al.,
15
Defendants.

17
Plaintiff Jerome Markiel Davis (“Plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in
18
forma pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. This action proceeds on
19
Plaintiff’s complaint against Defendant Roberts in her individual capacity for deliberate
20
indifference in violation of the Eighth Amendment, arising from the alleged incident of food
21
tampering.
22
Currently before the Court is Plaintiff’s motion for stamps and envelopes, filed August 23,
23
2019. (ECF No. 31.) Plaintiff states that he is an in forma pauperis inmate, and he does not have
24
any more stamps or envelopes to keep up with this action. Plaintiff requests that the court send
25
him stationary, specifically books of stamps and envelopes. (Id.)
26
In the Court’s First Informational Order, issued June 20, 2018, Plaintiff was advised that
27
“[t]he Court will not make copies of filed documents or provide postage or envelopes for free
28
even for parties proceeding in forma pauperis.” (ECF No. 3, p. 3.) Although Plaintiff is
1
1
proceeding in forma pauperis, that status does not entitle him to free stamps or envelopes from
2
the Court.
3
Accordingly, Plaintiff’s motion for stamps and envelopes, (ECF No. 31), is DENIED.
