Date Filed Document Text
August 27, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 8 ORDERED that on or before September 10, 2019 the plaintiff shall file an amended complaint which: 1. Contains claims which relate to actions or conditions at Ventress which he believes violated his constitutional rights and have occurred at Ventress since July 19, 2017 that are closely related to each other, i.e., arising out of the same incident or facts. Claims concerning defendants located at different state correctional facilities or which are unrelated in time and place must be brought in separate civil actions filed in the district where the facility is located. 2. Does not present claims on behalf of other inmates. If other inmates seek to file challenges to their conditions of confinement, they may do so by each on filing a separate 42 U.S.C. 1983 action. 3. Names those individuals personally responsible for the conditions/actions which he believes violated his constitutional rights. 4. Specifically describes how each defendant named in the amended complaint acted in a manner that deprived the plaintiff of his constitutional rights. That is, for each individual the plaintiff names as a defendant, he must provide facts to show that particular individual's participation or involvement in his claim. 5. Presents a short and plain statement of the claim showing why the plaintiff is entitled to relief which "give[s] the defendant fair notice of what the... claim is and the grounds upon which it rests."
