MINUTES OF THE COURT
November 20, 2014
PRESENT: THE HONORABLE WILLIAM G. COBB, U.S. MAGISTRATE JUDGE
DEPUTY CLERK:
KATIE LYNN OGDEN 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 Requesting Authentication of Plaintiffs' (sic) Exhibit-E,
Page No. 16 Submitted in Support of Plaintiffs' (sic) Civil Rights Complaint. (Doc. # 30.)
Defendants have responded (Doc. # 34) and Plaintiff has replied (Doc. # 38).
Defendants state they cannot understand the nature of the relief plaintiff is seeking or "how
this court can authenticate the document." (Doc. # 34 at 2.) Although Plaintiff states his motion
"seems very clear" (Doc. # 38 at 2), the court shares the same difficulty in interpreting the relief
Plaintiff is seeking.
To the extent Plaintiff's motion seeks to have the court "authenticate" one of his exhibits, the
court declines to do so. It does not have the power to determine which documents a party might
submit are authentic or not. In that respect, therefore, Plaintiff's motion is DENIED.
To the extent, however, that Plaintiff's motion can be interpreted as a request to substitute
a more legible document (Doc. # 30 at 4) in place of Doc # 5 at 183, Plaintiff's Motion is
GRANTED. However, Plaintiff has also attached another document, labeled as "EXHIBI-2 (sic),
appearing at p. 5 of Doc. 30. The court cannot ascertain what document this exhibit is intended to
replace or whether it is a new document. Regardless, the court is not going to "authenticate" this
document.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
LANCE S. WILSON, CLERK
