MINUTES OF THE COURT
May 31, 2016

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 to Effect Service on Defendant [Georgia Luce]Pursuant
to Rule 4. (ECF No. 35.) The title of Plaintiff’s motion is misleading in that Plaintiff is not asking
to effect Rule 4 service. Instead, Plaintiff is asking the court to (1) “direct the clerk of the court to
pursue other means of service that includes the assistance of a U.S. Marshal or someone specially
appointed by the court to locate Defendant Georgia Luce”; (2) that the clerk contact the Deputy
Attorney General...for further contact information”; or (3) “request(s) the court to perform a record
search on the named defendant should all other remedies fail.” (Id., at 3 of 5.)
Inasmuch as the address provided by the Office of the Attorney General for defendant Luce
under seal is a post office box address (ECF No. 13), the Attorney General’s Office shall attempt to
obtain the last known physical address of Defendant Georgia Luce and if available file it under seal.
The court will thereafter order the U.S. Marshal to attempt service of Plaintiff’s Complaint upon the
defendant. If a physical address is unavailable, the Attorney General’s Office shall file a Notice with
the court.
Plaintiff’s motion (ECF No. 35) is granted in part and denied in part as above stated.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
LANCE S. WILSON, CLERK
