ORDER

THIS MATTER is before the Court on Plaintiff’s Motion for an “Order for Mental Health
Examination,” (Doc. No. 67), and “Motion to Continue,” (Doc. No. 68).
In the “Order for Mental Health Examination,” Plaintiff seeks a current mental health
examination of himself, and also requests copies of “G.S. 1A-1” supboena forms pursuant to “Rule
45,” and a copy of the docket sheet. Plaintiff’s request for a mental health examination is lacking
in any factual or legal support and will be denied at this time. Plaintiff’s request for subpoena
forms will be granted insofar as the Clerk of Court will be directed, as a courtesy, to mail Plaintiff
a copy of the standard subpoena form.1 Plaintiff has already been provided with a copy of the
current docket sheet on May 4, 2018, so his request for another copy is denied at this time.
In the “Motion to Continue,” Plaintiff purports to seek an extension of time to respond to
Defendants’ motion to dismiss. No such motion has been filed to date and the deadline for filing
dispositive motions does not expire until July 30, 2018. See (Doc. No. 50). Plaintiff’s motion for
an extension of time is denied as moot at this time.

Plaintiff is reminded that copies of several frequently used forms are available on the Court’s website,
