MINUTE ORDER
ORDER ENTERED BY MAGISTRATE JUDGE BOYD N. BOLAND
Plaintiff’s “Motion to Admit Illegal, Falsified Police Report as Evidence; Judicial
Review of Boulder County Case #2013CR001385 & 2013CR001386” (ECF No. 15) and
the motion titled “Judicial Review of Boulder County Case (Falsified Evidence by
Defendants) Motion for Relief to Plaintiff, or Appeal to Higher Court” (ECF No. 19) are
DENIED because Plaintiff must file an amended complaint as directed if he wishes to
pursue any claims in this action. To the extent Plaintiff asks the court to reconsider his
request for counsel, that request is denied because Plaintiff still fails to demonstrate he
is unable to provide a clear and concise statement of his claims and he fails to
demonstrate his claims have merit. To the extent Plaintiff seeks an extension of time to
file an amended complaint, that request is granted and Plaintiff is directed to file his
amended complaint on or before November 21, 2014.
Finally, Plaintiff is advised not to include requests for court orders in letters to the
court (see ECF Nos. 16, 17, & 18) because any request for a court order must comply
with Rule 7 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Pursuant to Rule 7(b)(1), “[a]
request for a court order must be made by motion.” Furthermore, “[t]he rules governing
captions and other matters of form in pleadings apply to motions and other papers.”
