This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff’s Motion to Compel (ECF No. 47), filed on
August 15, 2016.
On April 18, 2016, the Court granted Plaintiff’s Motion for Service of Subpoena ordering
17
the U.S. Marshals to serve a subpoena compliant with Rule 45 of the Federal Rules of Civil
18
Procedure submitted by Plaintiff upon the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (“LVMPD”).

(ECF No. 42). The Court further ordered that Plaintiff shall have sixty days from the date the
20
subpoena was served upon LVMPD to provide the Court with proof of service of the summons and
21
complaint on Defendant Officer Cole. (ECF No. 42). On July 13, 2016, the subpoena to LVMPD
22
was returned executed. (ECF No. 45). Plaintiff represents that he has not received the requested
23
information from LVMPD. On July 28, 2016, Plaintiff mailed a letter to the U.S. Marshal’s Office
24
asking if the U.S. Marshals will forward the information requested in the subpoena to him or if he
25
must request it from LVMPD. (ECF No. 46).
26
Plaintiff requests an order from the Court compelling the U.S. Marshals to receive the
27
information requested in the subpoena from LVMPD and to forward it to Plaintiff. Plaintiff does
28
not indicate whether he attempted to resolve this issue by communicating with LVMPD. Plaintiff
1
is instructed to communicate with LVMPD to determine whether LVMPD will produce the
2
requested information in compliance with the subpoena. If unable to resolve this issue by
3
communicating with LVMPD, Plaintiff may file a motion to compel. In the interim, upon request,
4
the Court will grant an necessary extension of time to serve the Complaint. Accordingly,
