UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
MIDDLE DISTRICT OF FLORIDA
TAMPA DIVISION
ALEXANDRA LOVE PROSPEROUS,
Plaintiff,
v.

Case No. 8:17-cv-860-T-60AAS

PINELLAS COUNTY SHERIFF’S
DEPARTMENT, et al.,
Defendants.
_______________________________________/
ORDER
Alexandra Love Prosperous, proceeding pro se, requests permission to
serve the defendants by publication. (Doc. 23). She also seeks permission for
alternative service of process on the defendants. (Doc. 24).
A March 2018 order dismissed Prosperous’s original complaint. (Doc.
20). That same order required Prosperous to file an amended complaint by
March 29, 2018.

(Id.).

To date, Prosperous has submitted no amended

complaint but instead requests to serve the defendants with the previously
dismissed complaint by publication and for alternative service of process on
the defendants. (Docs. 23, 24).
Because Prosperous’s original complaint was dismissed, Prosperous
currently has no complaint to serve by publication or other means. Therefore,
1

her motions (Docs. 23, 24) are DENIED.
ENTERED in Tampa, Florida, on August 2, 2019.
