r=:::..=...:=.o~:.==,-===",""",,-,i,,,,n....:t,,,,hl=·S action on 102110/2016
, by the
Honorable Allison Claire
, United States District JudgelMagistrate Judge.
I believe that the following course of action is reasonably necessary to the prosecution of this
action:

I am in the process of arranging a visit with Henry A. Jones at California State Prison, Los Angeles County in
order to discuss Mr. Jones' case and the upcoming settlement conference. I estimate the round trip mileage to
California State Prison, l.os Angeles County located at 44750 60th Street West, Lancaster, California 93536 to be
approximately 400 miles.

Counsel seeking reimbursement must support all claimed npenses by submitting invoices. receipts or similar
documentation. Without such documentation, counsel will not be reimbursed.

I have made reasonable inquiry and believe that the cost of this course of action will not exceed
the amount of $1216.00
I therefore request that this court authorize the expenditure in an amount not to exceed that stated
above for the completion of this contemplated course of action.
