UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN
LEE BENNETT,
Plaintiff,

Case No. 16-CV-1403-JPS

v.
LT. SOLPECK, JOHN DOES 1 - 5, and
JANE DOE,
Defendants.

ORDER

On March 9, 2017, Plaintiff filed a motion to amend his pleading to
identify certain John Doe defendants. (Docket #14). Plaintiff did not,
however, actually include an amended pleading with the motion. As noted
in the Court’s trial scheduling order, he must amend his pleadings to properly
identify any John Doe defendants, and “‘[a]ny amendment to a pleading . .
. must reproduce the entire pleading as amended, and may not
incorporate any prior pleading by reference.’” Civil L. R. 15(a) (E.D. Wis.)
(emphasis added).” (Docket #12 at 1-2). Plaintiff’s motion must be denied for
his failure to comply with these rules.
Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiff’s motion to amend (Docket #14) be and
the same is hereby DENIED.
Dated at Milwaukee, Wisconsin, this 10th day of March, 2017.
BY THE COURT:

J.P. Stadtmueller
U.S. District Judge
