Plaintiff,
v.
JEFFERY CARSON, et al.,
Defendants,

No. 4:16CV579 HEA

OPINION, MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
This matter is before the Court on the several motions filed by plaintiff. Each of the
motions is denied.
Plaintiff filed a 213-page complaint against more than 150 defendants. The complaint is
mostly unintelligible and contains many allegations that are obviously delusional or malicious.
The Court has ordered plaintiff to submit an amended complaint by June 9, 2016.
Each of the pending motions is frivolous. Plaintiff has not presented the Court with nonfrivolous allegations.

As a result, his motion for appointment of counsel and motion for

temporary restraining order are denied without prejudice. The remainder of his motions are
baseless. Plaintiff should concentrate on timely filing his amended complaint.
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that each of plaintiff’s pending motions is DENIED
without prejudice.
Dated this 12th day of May, 2016
