Plaintiff,
v.
DAVID ELAM, et al.,
Defendants.
NO. 3:12-1294
Judge Trauger/Bryant
O R D E R
Plaintiff McFarland, a prisoner proceeding pro se, has
filed his motion to issue a subpoena duces tecum (Docket Entry No.
47).
By this motion, plaintiff McFarland seeks to subpoena the
Director
of
Human
Resources
for
the
Tennessee
Department
of
Corrections for the production of personnel files for defendants
Elam, Thabet, Phillipe and Keeling as well as the current address
for defendant Thabet. As grounds for this motion, plaintiff states
that he has been unable to obtain service of process on defendant
Thabet because he has been informed that she is no longer employed
by the Tennessee Department of Corrections.
Plaintiff states that
he needs a current address for her in order to obtain service.
Plaintiff’s motion to issue a subpoena as requested for
the personnel files of these employees is DENIED because plaintiff
has
failed
to
state
any
reason
for
needing
those
files.
Nevertheless, the Tennessee Attorney General’s Office is hereby
ORDERED to file under SEAL the last known address for defendant
Linda Thabet.
This information shall be filed under seal on or
before July 3, 2013.
Upon the filing of this address, the U.S.
Marshal shall attempt to serve the process on defendant Thabet at
this address.
It is so ORDERED.
