CASE NO. 4:14CV3158

MEMORANDUM
AND ORDER

This matter is before the Court on Petitioner’s “Motion for Order for Production of
Documents” (Filing No. 24). Petitioner asks this Court to compel Respondents to allow him
to purchase legal case citations and Federal Statutes at ten cents per page “so that he can
answer the [Respondents’] Motions and Briefs.” (Id. at ECF 1.) However, Petitioner has
already filed a brief opposing Respondents’ Motion. (See Filing No. 22.) Therefore, such
an order is unnecessary. Moreover, nothing in Petitioner’s motion suggests that he is
unable to prosecute this action because of inadequate access to the law library and legal
materials. Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED : Petitioner’s “Motion for Order for Production of Documents” (Filing
No. 24) is denied.

DATED this 8th day of January, 2015.
BY THE COURT:
s/Laurie Smith Camp
Chief United States District Judge
