Date Filed Document Text
June 22, 2022 ***Civil Case Terminated. (jp, )
June 8, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 4 ORDER; Plaintiff Fredrick Thomas initiated this civil rights action pro se under 42 U.S.C. 1983. At the same time, Plaintiff initiated another 42 U.S.C. 1983 civil rights action in Case No. 22 C 50185 (initial review of the complaint pending resolution of fee status). The two cases arise out of the same operative facts about soy meat causing Plaintiff to become ill, yet they are filed against separate defendants. Because the two cases should have been filed as one complaint, the Court directs the Clerk of Court to administratively close this case. The Court defers ruling on whether to add Hughes as a defendant to Case No. 22 C 50185 until initial review of that complaint. No filing fee shall be assessed, nor will a "strike" be assessed under 28 U.S.C. 1915(g). All pending motions in this case are denied as moot. Civil case terminated. Signed by the Honorable Iain D. Johnston on 6/8/2022: Mailed notice (yxp, )
