Filing 3
ENDORSED ORDER. Plaintiff, James T. Murzike, an inmate of the Florida penal system, filed a pro se #1 letter asking for a thorough criminal investigation into Lieutenant Winningham, who has brought "illegal material," including drugs, into the prison. As the Court has advised Murzike multiple times, see, e.g., 3:25-cv-1146-MMH-MCR (Doc. 2), a filing such as this cannot commence a civil action. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 3 ("A civil action is commenced by filing a complaint with the court."); see also M.D. Fla. R. 6.04(a) ("A pro se person in custody must use the standard form[.]"). Murzike has not filed a proper complaint or provided all of the information required by the court-approved civil rights complaint form. Murzike is advised that this Court cannot initiate a criminal investigation into alleged unlawful actions by prison staff. Accordingly, the Clerk of Court shall close this case. Signed by Judge Marcia Morales Howard on 5/5/2026. (KLC)
