DISCUSSION

13

On October 20, 2014, the Court entered a screening order dismissing Plaintiff’s

14

complaint in its entirety. (Dkt. no. 8 at 5.) The Court granted Plaintiff leave to amend his

15

complaint with respect to his allegations related to his incarceration at Northern Nevada

16

Correctional Center (“NNCC”). (Id.)

17

On October 22, 2014, Plaintiff filed a motion for clarification and asked this Court

18

to serve the 18 defendants listed in the complaint. (Dkt. no. 10 at 1.) The Court denies

19

this motion. Plaintiff has not stated a cognizable claim at this time. If and when Plaintiff

20

does state a cognizable claim, the Court will order service on the defendants when

21

procedurally applicable to do so. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(a).
