May 1, 2026 Opinion or Order Filing 3 ENDORSED ORDER: Plaintiff filed three letters to the court #1 making allegations of mail tampering and expressing fear of harm. The letters do not constitute a proper complaint, do not include all the information required by the courtapproved civil rights complaint form, and cannot commence a civil action. See Fed. R. Civ.

Additionally, Plaintiff failed to sign the filings as required by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 11(a) ("Every pleading... must be signed... by a party personally if the party is unrepresented."). Accordingly, the Clerk is directed to close this case and send Plaintiff a civil rights complaint form. Plaintiff may commence a new action by using the form. Signed by Judge Wendy W.
