WILLIAM D. FARLEY,

No. 2: 13-cv-1751 KJN P
Plaintiff,
13
v.
14
T. VIRGA, et al.,
15
ORDER
Defendants.
16
17
Plaintiff is a state prisoner, proceeding without counsel, with a civil rights action pursuant
18
to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On September 3, 2013, plaintiff consented to the jurisdiction of the
19
undersigned. (ECF No. 4.) This action is proceeding on the complaint filed November 13, 2013.
20
(ECF No. 11.) All defendants are located at California State Prison-Sacramento (“CSP-Sac”).
21
On March 7, 2014, plaintiff filed a notice of change of address indicating that he has been
22
transferred to California State Prison-Corcoran (“Corcoran”). (ECF No. 32.) Plaintiff also filed a
23
pleading requesting that the court issue restraining orders. (ECF No. 33.) In this pleading,
24
plaintiff alleges that threats were made against him, he was sexually battered and that his legal
25
property has been withheld.
26
In the pending request for restraining orders, plaintiff is apparently complaining about
27
conditions at Corcoran, where he is now housed. No defendants are located at Corcoran.
28
Therefore, plaintiff seeks injunctive relief against individuals who are not named as defendants in
1
1
this action, i.e., prison officials at Corcoran. This court is unable to issue an order against
2
individuals who are not parties to a suit pending before it. See Zenith Radio Corp. v. Hazeltine
3
Research, Inc., 395 U.S. 100, 112 (1969).
4
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff’s request for restraining orders
5
(ECF No. 33) is denied.
