PRESENT: THE HONORABLE WILLIAM G. COBB, U.S. MAGISTRATE JUDGE
DEPUTY CLERK:

JENNIFER COTTER

REPORTER: NONE APPEARING

COUNSEL FOR PLAINTIFF(S): NONE APPEARING
COUNSEL FOR DEFENDANT(S): NONE APPEARING
MINUTE ORDER IN CHAMBERS:
Before the court is plaintiff’s Motion for Copy Work Extension (Doc. #17). On
December 30, 2011, defendants opposed plaintiff’s motion (Doc. #19). No reply memorandum
was timely filed.
Plaintiff states he has reached his limit of $100 for allotted copy work. Plaintiff wants the
court to authorize “another $100 limit of copy work.” (Doc. # 17 at 3.) The defendants oppose
the request. (Doc. #19.) Defendants note that when an inmate has sufficient funds on deposit in
the inmate’s trust account, the inmate must sign a “brass slip to pay back their copy work debt.
(Exhibit B at 3).” (Doc. # 19 at 2.)
Defendants submit documentation that plaintiff has $241.80 in his NDOC Trust II
account (Id., citing defendants’ Exhibit C at 2, 4.) As such, defendants refute plaintiff’s clam he
cannot make additional copies as plaintiff
“simply needs to fill out a brass slip paying off his copy work debt with funds
he has in his NDOC Trust II Account (citation omitted.) He will then be
allowed to accrue another $100 in legal copy work debt . . .” (Doc. # 17) Id.
Plaintiff should follow NDOC procedures for allowable copy work. Plaintiff’s
Motion (Doc. # 17) is DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
LANCE S. WILSON, CLERK
