Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding without counsel in an action brought under 42

19

service of process on defendants Sahba and Kinder through the United States Marshal. ECF Nos.

Instead, plaintiff merely notified the court that he had located a new address for service of

22

defendant Sahba. ECF No. 43. He also requested the court’s assistance in locating the proper

23

address for service of defendant Kinder. ECF Nos. 43, 50. The court will deny plaintiff’s request

for court assistance, without prejudice. Plaintiff is directed to submit two forms USM-285 to

25

effectuate service of process on defendants Sahba and Kinder, even if plaintiff does not have a

26

new address for defendant Kinder. Upon receipt of those forms, the court will direct the U.S.

27

Marshal to re-attempt service of process on defendants Sahba and Kinder, using the addresses
