Date Filed Document Text
December 30, 2020 Prisoner Initial Partial Filing Fee received 12/30/20, in the amount of $ 33.29; receipt number 14626039410 (FDS, ilcd)
December 30, 2020 Opinion or Order TEXT ORDER Entered by Judge Colin Stirling Bruce on 12/30/2020. Plaintif's motion for an extension of time #7 is GRANTED, and Plaintiff has up to and including February 1, 2021, within which to file a proposed amended complaint as set forth by the Court in its Merit Review Order. Plaintiff must also pay the initial, partial filing fee by February 1, 2021, or the Court will dismiss this case. To the extent that Plaintiff intended his motion to constitute his amended complaint, the motion fails to satisfy the requirements of a proper complaint as explained by the Court in its Merit Review Order. The Court does not accept piecemeal amendments to pleadings. Accordingly, Plaintiff should file a complete, proposed amended complaint that 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 Defendants did or did not do, including any proposed new Defendant(s), and why their actions or inactions violated Plaintiff's constitutional rights as explained more fully by the Court in its Merit Review Order.
