September 14, 2018 Opinion or Order Filing 13 ORDER DISMISSING CASE without prejudice, based on Plaintiff's failure to comply with four separate Court Orders (Docs. 6, 8, 9, 12) or prosecute his claims.

August 24, 2018 Opinion or Order Filing 12 ORDER : The Complaint filed as Document 10 still lacks a signature page and a request for relief. Plaintiff has filed 3 versions of the Complaint to date: (1) Doc. 1 (no signature and no request for relief); (2) Doc. 7 (signature page and exhibits only); and (3) Doc. 10 (Docs. 1 and 7 combined with NO signature page or request for relief and a letter describing Doc. 10 as "the other half" of Plaintiff's "claim"). On or before September 4, 2018, Plaintiff must file a complete Complaint that stands on its own, does not refer to any other document, and includes his signature and request for relief. Failure to do so will result in dismissal of this action. Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b). To assist Plaintiff in complying with this Order, the Clerk is DIRECTED to RETURN a copy of Documents 1, 7, and 10 to Plaintiff, along with a blank civil rights complaint form. Signed by Judge Staci M. Yandle on 8/24/2018. (tjk)THIS TEXT ENTRY IS AN ORDER OF THE COURT. NO FURTHER DOCUMENTATION WILL BE MAILED.
August 24, 2018 Filing 11 NOTICE OF MODIFICATION re #10 Complaint filed by Freddie Clemons. Docket entry text modified to reflect that the complaint is not signed. (tjk)THIS TEXT ENTRY IS AN ORDER OF THE COURT. NO FURTHER DOCUMENTATION WILL BE MAILED.
August 23, 2018 Filing 10 COMPLAINT against All Defendants, filed by Freddie Clemons.(tkm) Modified on 8/24/2018 (tjk).
August 20, 2018 Opinion or Order Filing 9 ORDER: Plaintiff was ordered to file a complete signed Complaint on or before August 15, 2018. (Docs. 6, 8). He was warned that failure to comply with the order would result in the striking of Plaintiff's unsigned Complaint and the dismissal of this action. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b). To date, Plaintiff has not complied with the Court's Order, and the deadline for doing so has expired. He will be given one final opportunity to pursue his claims in this action by filing a properly signed Complaint within 14 days. Accordingly, Plaintiff is ORDERED to file a complete Complaint that includes his signature and request for relief no later than September 4, 2018. Failure to do so by this deadline shall result in dismissal of this action. See id. (Amended Pleadings due by 9/4/2018). Signed by Judge Staci M. Yandle on 8/20/2018. (tjk)THIS TEXT ENTRY IS AN ORDER OF THE COURT. NO FURTHER DOCUMENTATION WILL BE MAILED.
July 31, 2018 Opinion or Order Filing 8 Order STRIKING #7 Response to Order. Plaintiff originally submitted a Complaint that lacked his signature and a request for relief. On July 18, 2018, the Court returned the Complaint to him with instructions to sign it, add a request for relief, and return it to the Court no later than August 15, 2018. Plaintiff instead returned his signature page with 30 pages of exhibits. The Court does not accept piecemeal amendments to a complaint. The Complaint must stand on its own without reference to any other document. Standing alone, this document does not represent a complete Complaint. Plaintiff is therefore ORDERED to file a single complete Complaint that includes a signature page and request for relief by August 15, 2018. Failure to do so by this deadline may result in dismissal of this action. Because the Clerk has already mailed Plaintiff a copy of his original Complaint, it is unnecessary to do so again at this time. Signed by Judge Staci M. Yandle on 7/31/2018. (tjk)THIS TEXT ENTRY IS AN ORDER OF THE COURT. NO FURTHER DOCUMENTATION WILL BE MAILED.
July 30, 2018 Filing 7 ENTRY STRICKEN per Court Order at Doc. 8: RESPONSE to 6 Order filed by Freddie Clemons. (Attachments: #1 Cover letter from Plaintiff)(jaj) Modified on 7/31/2018 (tjk).
July 18, 2018 Opinion or Order Filing 6 ORDER: Plaintiff filed an unsigned #1 Complaint pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 1983 on July 17, 2018. (Doc. 1, p. 11). It includes no request for relief. Id. Rule 11(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure requires that "[e]very pleading, written motion, and other paper must be signed... by a party personally if the party is unrepresented." Rule 8(a)(3) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure requires "[a] pleading that states a claim for relief [to] contain... a demand for the relief sought, which may include relief in the alternative or different types of relief." See id. In a civil rights action filed pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 1983, the request for relief typically includes a request for monetary damages and/or injunctive relief. To proceed with this action, Plaintiff is ORDERED to submit a properly signed Complaint, including exhibits, that includes a request for relief within twenty-eight (28) days (on or before August 15, 2018). Failure to comply with this order shall result in the striking of Plaintiff's Complaint and the dismissal of this action. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b). To enable Plaintiff to comply with this Order, the CLERK is DIRECTED to return a copy of the Complaint (Doc. 1) to Plaintiff along with this order. (Action due by 8/15/2018). Signed by Judge Staci M. Yandle on 7/18/2018. (tjk)THIS TEXT ENTRY IS AN ORDER OF THE COURT. NO FURTHER DOCUMENTATION WILL BE MAILED.
