IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO
Civil Action No. 14-cv-03391-GPG
ELMER LEE CROSS, JR.,
Plaintiff,
v.
SHERIFF’S DEPUTY DECKER,
SHERIFF’S DEPUTY GARCIA,
SHERIFF’S DEPUTY MACDONALD, and
SARGENT SHANON,
Defendants.

MINUTE ORDER
ORDER ENTERED BY MAGISTRATE JUDGE GORDON P. GALLAGHER
On December 16, 2014, the Court entered an Order Directing Plaintiff to Cure
Deficiencies if he wished to pursue any claims in this action. Plaintiff has subsequently
filed numerous letters and motions with the Court making multiple requests. (See ECF
Nos. 4-13, 15-25). However, none of the letters and motions comply with the Court’s
orders.
Plaintiff’s request (ECF No. 16) for an extension of time to comply with the
December 16 Order is granted as follows: Plaintiff shall have up to and including
February 10, 2015 to comply with the Court’s December 16 Order by submitting a
Prisoner’s Motion and Affidavit for Leave to Proceed Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915 on
the proper form and a certified copy of his trust fund statement for the six-month period
immediately preceding the filing of his Prisoner Complaint. Plaintiff is advised that this
is his final opportunity to comply with the Court’s orders. No further extensions will be
granted. Failure to comply within the time allowed will result in dismissal of this action
without further notice.
Plaintiff also alleges that prison officials will not assist him in obtaining the
necessary forms to comply with the Court’s orders. Plaintiff’s request (ECF No. 16) for
a complete Prisoner Complaint packet is granted as follows: The Clerk of the Court is
directed to send again to Plaintiff a copy of the Prisoner’s Motion and Affidavit for Leave
to Proceed Pursuant to § 1915.
Plaintiff’s numerous requests for miscellaneous court orders (ECF Nos. 4-13, 1525) are denied as premature.
Finally, Plaintiff is delaying the progress of his case by filing unnecessary letters
and motions. Plaintiff is directed to cease filing unnecessary papers that only delay the

progress of this case. The Court may not respond to any such papers Plaintiff files in
the future. In order to pursue his claims in this case, Plaintiff must comply with the
December 16 Order Directing Plaintiff to Cure Deficiencies.
