IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

LAWRENCE NORTHERN,
Plaintiff,

ORDER

v.

13-cv-367-jdp

KOREEN FRISK,
Defendant.

This order memorializes my ruling at the November 21, 2017 pretrial conference
regarding the use of restraints on plaintiff Lawrence Northern. The parties stipulated to having
Northern wear a “Band-It”-style device under his civilian clothes, that civilian clothes would
be provided by Northern’s counsel, and that those clothes would be available to Northern in
the lockup in the federal courthouse. Northern will change into the civilian clothes before the
beginning of the trial day and out of them at the end of the trial day. The parties have asked
the court for an order approving that stipulation. Accordingly, IT IS SO ORDERED.
Entered November 22, 2017.
BY THE COURT:
