13

Case No. 2:14-cv-02140-APG-GWF
ORDER

This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff’s Motion for Leave to File a Larger than Normal

14

Complaint (#26), filed on August 5, 2015. This matter is also before the Court on Plaintiff’s

15

Motion to Extend Prison Copywork Limit (#29), filed on August 10, 2015.

16

I.

17

Motion for Leave to File a Larger than Normal Complaint
Plaintiff has previously been given permission to file a complaint that is longer than normal.

18

See Screening Order (#15), p. 7. Plaintiff’s motion is therefore moot.

19

II.

20

Motion to Extend Prison Copywork Limit
Plaintiff moves to extend his prison copywork limit. He represents that he has reached the

21

$100.00 limit, and that the Nevada Department of Corrections will not allow him any further

22

copywork without a Court order. In his prior Motion to Extend Prison Copywork Limit (#22), the

23

Plaintiff requested an extension of the limit by $350.00. The Court denied the Plaintiff’s request

24

because he did not explain how he amassed a debt of $250.00, and did not explain why he required

25

an additional extension of $100.00 on top of paying off his debt. See Order (#25). In the instant

26

Motion (#29), Plaintiff does not mention this debt, explain how it was accrued, or offer any reason

27

that he requires $100.00 on top of clearing any debt. The Court will therefore deny the Plaintiff’s

28

Motion without prejudice. Accordingly,

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiff’s Motion to Extend Prison Copywork Limit
(#29 is denied without prejudice.
DATED this 13th day of August, 2015.
