Filing 5
ORDER: Plaintiff's application for leave to proceed in forma pauperis #3 is granted. The Court orders the trust fund officer at Plaintiff's place of incarceration to immediately deduct $6.66 from Plaintiff's account for payment to the Clerk of Court as an initial partial payment of the filing fee in this case. As discussed below, the Court also orders Plaintiff to pay (and the facility having custody of him to automatically collect and remit) to the Clerk of Court, 60% of any and all deposits to his account until his filing fees have been paid in full. The Court directs the Clerk of Court to (1) send a copy of this order (electronically if possible) to the trust fund officer at the facility having custody of Plaintiff; (2) file Plaintiff's complaint #1 ; (3) issue summonses for service of the complaint on Defendants Guzman, Roman, Manis, and Srodulski by the U.S. Marshal; (4) revise the docket to reflect Guzman as the lead defendant; (5) terminate Defendants Phillips and Judkins; and (6) send Plaintiff four blank USM-285 (Marshals service) forms, a magistrate judge consent form, filing instructions, and a copy of this order. Plaintiff must complete and return a USM-285 form for service on each Defendant. Failure to return the completed USM-285 forms by October 10, 2019, may result in dismissal of any unserved Defendants as well as dismissal of this case in its entirety. 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 for failure to comply with a Court order and for failure to prosecute. The Court appoints the U.S. Marshal to serve Defendants Guzman, Roman, Manis, and Srodulski. Plaintiff's request for attorney representation #4 is denied as premature. See Pickett v. Chicago Transit Auth., 930 F.3d 869, 871 (7th Cir. 2019) (suggesting that that motion for attorney representation is premature if filed "so early in the case that it was impossible to tell whether [the plaintiff] could represent himself adequately"). Plaintiff also is reminded that he must attempt to obtain counsel on his own before this Court will consider recruiting counsel for him. Signed by the Honorable Virginia M. Kendall on 9/19/2019.
