September 7, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 40 MINUTE ORDER This matter is before the Court upon review of the docket. Pursuant to #9 Order, this matter is set for a scheduling conference on 9/13/2023 at 09:45 AM in Courtroom A 402 before Magistrate Judge Scott T. Varholak.

August 30, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 38 ORDER This matter is before the Court on #36 Motion for Order (the "Motion").

The Court will also attempt to coordinate with Plaintiff's facility to ensure Plaintiff's appearance at future hearings, but nonetheless encourages Plaintiff to give notice of any upcoming hearings to appropriate personnel at his facility to the extent feasible.

July 26, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 21 ORDER This matter is before the Court on #5 Letter, which seeks to amend Plaintiff's Complaint by attaching additional pages. Plaintiff's request to amend his complaint "piecem[ea]l" is DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE. Subject to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 15, Plaintiff may amend his complaint, but must submit a complete amended complaint--as one complete document--instead of retroactively attaching separate pages to an already-filed complaint. See Bradley v. Hill, No. 23-3108-JWL, 2023 WL 3619471, at *6 (D. Kan. May 24, 2023) ("[Plaintiff] may not... make partial submissions by sending some pages of the court-approved form complaint in one mailing and sending other pages of the court-approved form on a different day. Rather, he must submit all pages of his [amended complaint] and all attachment[s] and exhibits at one time."). The Clerk of Court is instructed to mail a copy of this order to Plaintiff. SO ORDERED, by Magistrate Judge Scott T. Varholak on 7/26/2023. Text Only Entry(stvlc4, )
July 26, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 20 ORDER REFERRING CASE to Magistrate Judge Scott T. Varholak for all motions. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 636(b)(1)(A) and (B) and Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(a) and (b), this case is referred to the assigned United States Magistrate Judge to (1) convene a scheduling conference under Fed. R. Civ. P. 16(b) and enter a scheduling order meeting the requirements of Local Civ. R. 16.2, (2) conduct such status conferences and issue such orders necessary for compliance with the scheduling order, including amendments or modifications of the scheduling order upon a showing of good cause, (3) hear and determine pretrial matters, including discovery and other non-dispositive motions, (4) conduct hearings, including evidentiary hearings, and submit proposed findings of fact and recommendations for rulings on dispositive motions, and (5) pursuant to Local Civ. R. 16.6 and at the discretion of the Magistrate Judge, convene such early neutral evaluation and/or settlement conferences and direct related procedures as may facilitate resolution of this case without the necessity of a motion or prior authorization of the undersigned. Motion #5 is referred to Magistrate Judge Scott T. Varholak. By Judge Charlotte N. Sweeney on 7/26/2023. Text Only Entry (cnssec, )
July 25, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 19 CERTIFICATE of Service by Mail by Clerk of Court re 18 Case Reassigned, 17 Minute Order, to Arthur Burnham #194679 at Centennial Correctional Facility (CCF) P.O. Box 600 Canon City, CO 81215. Text Only Entry. (trvo, )
July 25, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 18 CASE REASSIGNED. Pursuant to the 17 Minute Order, this case is randomly reassigned to Judge Charlotte N. Sweeney and drawn to Magistrate Judge Scott T. Varholak. All future pleadings should be designated as 23-cv-01775-CNS. (Text Only Entry) (trvo, )
July 25, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 17 MINUTE ORDER This matter is before the Court upon review of the Docket. Plaintiff has not consented to have a magistrate judge conduct all proceedings in his civil action [See #15]. Plaintiff's #16 Letter indicates that Plaintiff "would have consented" but was unable to consent with other parties, presumably because they have not yet been served or made an appearance. The Court does not construe Plaintiff's #16 Letter as seeking to alter Plaintiff's decision to not consent to Magistrate Judge jurisdiction, as noted on #15 Consent Form. However, it appears from #16 Letter that Plaintiff seeks immediate relief from this Court, possibly before the entry of appearance by any Defendant and without notice to Defendants. To the extent that this is so, the Court notes that pursuant to D.C.COLO.LCivR 65.1, a temporary restraining order must be requested by motion filed separately from the complaint, and must meet the requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 65(b)(1) and D.C.COLO.LCivR 65.1 before the Court will consider an ex parte motion for a temporary restraining order. Accordingly, because Plaintiff has not consented to magistrate judge jurisdiction, and based on Plaintiff's apparent request for injunctive relief, the Clerk of Court is instructed to reassign this matter to a District Judge for further proceedings. SO ORDERED, by Magistrate Judge Scott T. Varholak on 7/25/2023. Text Only Entry (stvlc4, )
