KARL GRANT LOSEE,
Plaintiff,

MEMORANDUM DECISION & ORDER

v.
BEVERLY PETERMANN et al.,
Defendants.

Case No. 2:13-CV-263 TS
District Judge Ted Stewart

The Court has directed the United States Marshals Service to serve process in this case.
See Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(c)(2). To do so, by statute, the United States Marshal "shall command all
necessary assistance to execute its duties." See 28 U.S.C.S. § 556(c) (2014).
The Complaint identifies the following Utah state employees as defendants:
Beverly Petermann, Accountant
John Capell, Accountant
Alfred Bigelow, Warden
Steven Turley, Executive Director
Under state policy, service of process on current state employees may be effected via authorized
agent. If any of the named defendants are no longer employed by the State or the State is not
authorized to accept service for any of these individuals, more information must be obtained
from the State to complete service.
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that: If the State is unable to accept service
of process for the defendants identified above, the State shall disclose to the United States
Marshals Service any information in its records that may help in identifying, locating and
completing service of process upon the named defendants. Such information shall include, but is

not limited to, the defendants' full names and any known aliases, dates of birth, Social Security
numbers, driver's license numbers, all previous addresses, and last known addresses on file. The
U.S. Marshal shall take all necessary measures to safeguard any personal information provided
by the State to ensure that it is not disclosed to anyone other than the U.S. Marshals Service or
Court officers.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
DATED this 30th day of March, 2015.
BY THE COURT:

JUDGE TED STEWART
