IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN
CHARLES SHEPPARD,
Plaintiff,

ORDER

v.
Case No. 18-cv-152-wmc
HOEM, et al.
Defendants.

Plaintiff Charles Sheppard a prisoner in the custody of the Wisconsin Department of
Corrections, has submitted a proposed complaint and has paid the $400 filing fee. Because
plaintiff is a prisoner, plaintiff is subject to the Prisoner Litigation Reform Act, which requires
the court to screen the complaint to determine whether any portion is frivolous or malicious,
fails to state a claim on which relief may be granted or seeks monetary relief from a defendant
who is immune from such relief.
Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that plaintiff Charles Sheppard’s complaint is taken
under advisement pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A. Plaintiff will be notified promptly when
such a decision has been made. In the meantime, if plaintiff needs to communicate with the
court about this case, plaintiff should be sure to write the case number shown above on any
communication.

Entered this 12th day of March, 2018.
