No. 2:07-cv-02290 TLN KJN P
Plaintiff,
v.
ORDER
BRAD WILLIAMS, et al.,
Defendants.
16
17
On September 2, 2014, plaintiff filed two motions: (1) “Motion for the Court to Take
18
Notice of the Joint Hearing of the Senate Select Committee on Government Oversight in Support
19
of Plaintiff’s Confidential Settlement Hearing” (ECF No. 299 (246 pages)), which includes a
20
transcript of the January 2004 committee hearing on the “Reform of How Employee
21
Investigations Are Conducted at Youth and Adult Correctional Facilities;” and (2) “Motion for
22
the Court to Take Into Consideration of the Green Wall Prison Gang Activities, and Criminal
23
Organized Crime Within CDCR in Support of Plaintiff’s Confidential Settlement Statement
24
Within this Cause of Action . . . .” (ECF No. 300 (186 pages)).
25
Plaintiff is informed that “motions” filed in this court are for the purpose of “request[ing]
26
a court order.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 7(b)(1). Plaintiff’s submissions are intended for consideration by
27
the Magistrate Judge who will be conducting the settlement conference in this action on
28
September 11, 2014. The submissions do not seek a court order and therefore are not “motions.”
1
1
Accordingly, the Clerk of Court will be directed to redesignate both “motions” as “submissions.”
2
Consideration of these matters is within the discretion of the Magistrate Judge conducting the
3
settlement conference. No further action will be taken in response to these filings.
Two additional matters require comment. First, plaintiff is directed to this court’s order
4
5
filed September 2, 2014 (ECF No. 297) which, in pertinent part, directs officials at plaintiff’s
6
place of incarceration, California State Prison Corcoran, to expedite the copying and mailing of
7
plaintiff’s confidential settlement statement. If these tasks have not yet been completed, it is
8
imperative that they be completed immediately, and that plaintiff’s statement be received by this
9
court as soon as possible.
10
Second, plaintiff is again admonished to cease filing any documents in this case unless
11
expressly directed by the court. Plaintiff is reminded of this court’s prior admonishment, as set
12
forth by order filed December 12, 2013 (ECF No. 275 at 5 (fns. omitted)):
13
Admonition: Plaintiff has repeatedly been admonished to refrain
from filing extraneous matters in this action. (See e.g. ECF No.
148; ECF No. 206 at 4-5; ECF No. 211.) Plaintiff is again
admonished to refrain from filing any matters in this case unless
directed by the court, under penalty of sanctions. See Fed. R. Civ.
P. 11; Local Rules 110, 183(a).
14
15
16
17
No further accommodation will be accorded plaintiff. Failure of plaintiff to abide by this
18
admonition shall result in the imposition of monetary and/or evidentiary sanctions. Plaintiff shall
19
submit no further matters in this action with the exception of his confidential settlement statement
20
(which shall be mailed, not filed), unless directed by the court.
21
For these reasons, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:
22
1. The Clerk of Court is directed to designate plaintiff’s “motions” filed September 2,
23
2014 (ECF No. 299, 300) as “submissions;” the court will take no further action on these matters.
24
2. If not already submitted, plaintiff shall immediately mail his confidential settlement
25
statement to the Clerk of Court, for consideration by the Magistrate Judge conducting the
26
September 11, 2014 settlement conference in this case.
27
28
3. Plaintiff is admonished to file no further matters in this action unless directed by the
court.
