ORDER Denying without Prejudice 21 Motion to Amend/Correct. Signed by Magistrate Judge R. Steven Whalen. (MWil)

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
SOUTHERN DIVISION
JOHN MATELIC,
Plaintiff,

No. 12-13523

v.

District Judge Avern Cohn
Magistrate Judge R. Steven Whalen

BENNY MENDOZA,
Defendant.
/
ORDER
Plaintiff John Matelic, who is proceeding pro se, has filed a motion to amend his
complaint [Doc. #21]. The motion will be DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.
E.D. Mich. Local Rule 15.1 provides that “[a] party who moves to amend a
pleading shall attach the proposed amended pleading to the motion.” Plaintiff has not
done that. Although he states that he wishes to name additional Defendants, he does not
state who those Defendants are. Therefore, his motion to amend [Doc. #21] is DENIED
WITHOUT PREJUDICE to filing a motion that conforms to the Local Rules.
IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: August 12, 2013
