Date Filed Document Text
April 4, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 8 ORDER: Plaintiff has submitted a letter #7 that the court interprets as a motion for extension of time to return the USM-285 service forms. In it, Plaintiff states that he has written to the Cook County Sheriff's Office seeking Defendants' first names, badge numbers, and addresses. Plaintiff is advised that he should use Defendants' work address (Cook County Department of Corrections, 2700 S. California Ave., Chicago IL 60608) to complete the service forms. He should provide as much information as he has about Defendants, but if he does not have first names or badge numbers, he need not provide that information at this time. The U.S. Marshal will attempt service based on the information provided. The Court grants Plaintiff's motion for an extension of time and gives him until May 3, 2019 to complete and return the service forms. Failure to do so by that date may result in summary dismissal of this matter. Signed by the Honorable Rebecca R. Pallmeyer on 4/4/2019. Mailed notice (yap, ).

Plaintiff must complete and return a USM-285 form for service on each Defendant.

Plaintiff also must promptly submit a change-of-address notification if he is transferred to another facility or released. If Plaintiff fails to keep the court informed of his address, this action will be subject to dismissal. The court appoints the U.S. Marshal to serve Defendants.
