LUIS MANUEL GARCES,

Plaintiff,

v.
No. 2:17-cv-0319 JAM AC P
ORDER
J. PICKETT, et al.,
15
Defendants.
16
Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed a motion requesting that the court
17
18
order the law librarian to copy his response to the motion for judgment on the pleadings,
19
including nearly 300 pages of exhibits. ECF No. 89.
As the court has previously explained to plaintiff, defendants have filed a motion for
20
21
judgment on the pleadings, not a motion for summary judgment. ECF No. 79 at 2; ECF No. 84 at
22
1-2. This means that when deciding the motion, the court will not look at any evidence other than
23
what was filed with the complaint. Plaintiff should send the court only his memorandum in
24
opposition to the motion and his declaration,1 since the court will not look at any of his other
25
exhibits. If plaintiff wants to refer to exhibits that were filed with the complaint, the court will
26
consider those documents, but plaintiff does not need to re-file them.

The response plaintiff received from prison staff indicated that he would be allowed to make
copies of his memorandum. ECF No. 89 at 5.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff’s motion for copies (ECF No. 89)

is denied.
