Defendants.

On May 14, 2014, plaintiff, a state prisoner incarcerated at California State Prison,

United States District Court
Northern District of California

11

Sacramento, filed a pro se amended complaint pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983, alleging

12

constitutional violations by staff at Pelican Bay State Prison (“PBSP”), where he was formerly

13

incarcerated. On August 28, 2014, the Court screened the amended complaint, found it stated

14

cognizable claims, and ordered service on three defendants at PBSP. On June 19, 2015,

15

defendants filed their motion for summary judgment. Plaintiff’s opposition thereto is currently

16

due on or before July 17, 2015.

17

Now before the Court is plaintiff’s request for a court order directing his current jailors to

18

provide him with a mental health evaluation. The Court lacks jurisdiction over individuals at

19

plaintiff’s current prison. Accordingly, the request is DENIED.

20

If plaintiff wishes to complain about the conditions of confinement at California State

21

Prison, Sacramento, he should file a civil rights complaint in the proper district (which would be

22

the Eastern District of California) after exhausting administrative remedies for any such claims.

23

This order terminates Docket No. 71.

24

IT IS SO ORDERED.
