Date Filed Document Text
December 15, 2021 Filing 31 TEXT ORDER - Plaintiff has filed a number of documents which are basically a running narrative of issues and complaints against SCI-Houtzdale. See ECF Nos. 6, 9, 29, and 30. In essence, Plaintiff's filings are unmanageable. With these submissions, he is requiring the Court to sort through and try to determine if the filing relates to a current claim or if he is attempting to bring a new claim. The Court is not in a position to make such a determination without assuming the risk of either ignoring relevant information and/or considering irrelevant material. To the extent Plaintiff believes he has been subjected to violations that are unrelated to the claims of the Complaint filed in this case, he should file separate complaints addressing each violation along with separate motions to proceed in forma pauperis.
