Date Filed Document Text
October 14, 2022 Filing 10 TEXT ONLY ORDER REGARDING COMPLAINT DEFICIENCY. After review of the Complaint, it is determined that the Plaintiff has not clearly stated how each named Defendant violated his federal constitutional rights, and some of his claims may be frivolous. Plaintiff is ADVISED that he must provide details as to the date and location of any incidents, as well as who did what. For this reason, Plaintiff is directed to submit an Amended Complaint within 21 days of the date of this Order. The Clerk is directed to mail the Plaintiff a court-approved 1983 form.The Court is aware that the form indicates it is for prisoners, and Plaintiff is not incarcerated. This form is used for all Plaintiffs not represented by an attorney because it provides guidance for stating a Complaint. In the Amended Complaint, Plaintiff must write short, plain statements telling the Court: the constitutional right Plaintiff believes was violated;the name of the Defendant who violated the right;exactly what the Defendant did or failed to do;how the action or inaction of that Defendant is connected to the violation of the constitutional rights;and what specific injury Plaintiff suffered because of the misconduct of that Defendant. See Rizzo v. Goode, 423 U.S. 362,371-72,377 (1976);Fed.R.Civ.P.8. Plaintiff must repeat this process for each person he has named as a Defendant. Plaintiff is CAUTIONED that he must affirmatively link the conduct of each named Defendant with the specific injury he suffered. If he fails to do so, the allegations against that Defendant will be dismissed for failure to state a claim.Plaintiff must clearly designate on the face of the document that it is a Second Amended Complaint. The Second Amended Complaint must be retyped or rewritten in its entirety on the court-approved form. You may not refer back to any part of any prior complaint. A Second Amended Complaint supersedes, or takes the place of, any prior Complaint. After amendment, the Court will treat all prior Complaints as nonexistent. Any cause of action that was raised in any prior Complaint is waived if it is not raised in the Second Amended Complaint. This case shall be subject to dismissal if Plaintiff fails to return the Amended Complaint to the Court by the deadline. CLERK TO FOLLOW UP Amended Complaint due by 11/4/2022.
