Date Filed Document Text
June 1, 2023 Opinion or Order TEXT ORDER entered by Judge Colin Stirling Bruce on 6/1/2023. Plaintiff's motion for leave to amend his complaint #9 is DENIED. Plaintiff asks leave to amend his Complaint to substitute the John and Jane Doe Defendants and to make other changes. However, the Court does not accept piecemeal amendments to pleadings. If Plaintiff desires to amend his Complaint to add a Defendant, to add a claim, to add documents, or to substitute a Defendant for a John or Jane Doe Defendant, he should file a motion seeking leave to do so in which he identifies the changes that he desires to make in his Complaint. In addition, Plaintiff should attach a complete, proposed amended complaint that, if granted leave to file, will completely replace his original Complaint and will stand on its own without reference to or reliance upon his Original Complaint. Flannery v. Recording Indus. Ass'n of Am., 354 F.3d 632, 638 n.1 (7th Cir. 2004). The proposed Amended Complaint should explain what any and all Defendants did or did not do, including the proposed new Defendant(s), and why their actions or inactions violated Plaintiff's Constitutional rights.

May 12, 2023 Filing 8 +++ PRISONER TRUST FUND LEDGER by Cory William Calhoun. (TC)
May 11, 2023 Opinion or Order TEXT ORDER entered by Judge Colin Stirling Bruce on 5/11/2023. Plaintiff's motion to request an exemption from e-filing #6 is temporarily GRANTED. As the Court understands it, the Graham Correction Center (where Plaintiff is incarcerated) has the capability of e-filing with the Court. However, Graham currently does not have a prison law librarian who can e-file for the prisoners housed at Graham. Accordingly, Plaintiff may conventionally file his pleadings and motions with the Court through the United States Postal Service until such time as Graham is, again, able to e-file with the Court for Plaintiff. (KE)

Plaintiff may renew his motion if his claim survives that review that the Court will conduct in the near future. (KE)
