Date Filed Document Text
July 16, 2021 Filing 27 TEXT ONLY ORDER denying #25 Motion video and documents.

July 16, 2021 Filing 26 TEXT ONLY ORDER denying #24 Motion for subpoena of documents, video and documents and information related to Plaintiff's state criminal case.

In addition, the Court has no control over information or documents relating to Plaintiff's state criminal case and will not issue a subpoena for that information because his criminal case has nothing to do with the instant 1983 litigation.

June 9, 2021 Filing 14 TEXT ONLY ORDER REGARDING COMPLAINT DEFICIENCY. After review of the Amended 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. In addition, Plaintiff generally refers to all medical and jail staff as being involved in a violation of his rights and does not even attempt to list any named individuals other than Captain Adams. For this reason, Plaintiff is directed to submit a Second Amended Complaint within 21 days of the date of this Order. The Clerk is directed to mail the Plaintiff a court-approved 1983 form.In the Second 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 the original complaint. A Second Amended Complaint supersedes, or takes the place of, the original and First Amended Complaint. After amendment, the Court will treat the original and First Amended Complaint as nonexistent. Any cause of action that was raised in the original or First Amended Complaint is waived if it is not raised in the First Amended Complaint. This case shall be subject to dismissal if Plaintiff fails to return the Second Amended Complaint to the Court by the deadline. Amended Complaint due by 6/30/2021. Signed by Honorable Barry A. Bryant on June 9, 2021. (mlf)
