Doc. 119

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEBRASKA ROBERT E. SANFORD, ) ) Plaintiff, ) ) v. ) ) UNKNOWN NEWTON, Director, ) UNKNOWN DAVIS, Corrections ) Officer, UNKNOWN DUTCHER, ) Corrections Officer, and UNKNOWN ) SHERMAN, Case Management, ) ) Defendants. ) 8:08CV261

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

This matter is before the court on its own motion. The primary issue before the court is whether Plaintiff Robert E. Sanford failed to exhaust his administrative remedies prior to filing suit in this court, as argued by Defendants in their Motion for Summary Judgment. (See Filing No. 107 at CM/ECF p. 1.) The Index of Evidence filed by Defendants in support of their Motion for Summary Judgment indicates that Plaintiff's inmate request forms and inmate grievance forms are included in Defendants' exhibit package as Exhibits 10 and 11. (Filing No. 107, Attachment 1, at CM/ECF p. 1.) However, Exhibits 10 and 11 are actually excerpts from the Douglas County Department of Corrections Policy and Procedures Manual, and not the inmate request and grievance forms. (See Filing No. 110, Attachment 10 and Filing No. 110, Attachment 11.) Because the court needs to review Plaintiff's inmate request forms and inmate grievance forms in order to rule on Defendants' Motion for Summary Judgment, the court will give Defendants until October 4, 2010, to provide the relevant inmate request forms and inmate grievance forms.
