MINUTE ORDER

ENTERED BY MAGISTRATE JUDGE KRISTEN L. MIX
This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff’s Advisement Regarding Monthly
Updates and Motion to Hold Defendants in Contempt [#106]1 (the “Motion”). In the
Motion, Plaintiff asks the Court to hold Defendants in contempt for failing to provide him
with pain medication allegedly prescribed by a doctor. This case was administratively
closed on March 31, 2014 [#104]. Accordingly, if Plaintiff would like to seek relief from the
Court, such as that requested in the Motion, he must file a motion asking the Court to
reopen the case.
Pursuant to D.C.COLO.LCivR 41.2 and the Court’s Order
Administratively Closing Case [#104], the motion must show good cause for reopening the
case. Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Motion [#106] is DENIED without prejudice.
If Plaintiff wishes to file a motion requesting the relief sought in the Motion after the case
is reopened for good cause shown, he may do so.
Dated: June 23, 2014

a specific paper by the Court’s case management and electronic case filing system (CM/ECF). I
use this convention throughout this Minute Order.
