Date Filed Document Text
November 10, 2020 Filing 6 Case transferred in from District of Wisconsin Western; Case Number 3:20-cv-00955. Original file certified copy of transfer order and docket sheet received.
November 10, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 5 ** TEXT ONLY ORDER ** As noted in a previous order, plaintiff filed a complaint that was mailed to this court but had a caption that was directed to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin. Plaintiff's lawsuit relates to events that occurred in the Eastern District, so it appeared that plaintiff had sent his complaint to the wrong court. I informed plaintiff that I would transfer the case to the Eastern District unless he told the court by October 30 that he wanted the case to remain in the Western District. Plaintiff hasn't responded, so this case is TRANSFERRED to the Eastern District of Wisconsin. Signed by District Judge James D. Peterson on 11/10/2020. (lam),(ps) [Transferred from wiwd on 11/10/2020.]
November 10, 2020 NOTICE Regarding assignment of this matter to Judge Brett Ludwig; Consent/refusal forms for Magistrate Judge Dries to be filed within 21 days; the consent/refusal form is available #here. (jcl)
October 16, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 4 ** TEXT ONLY ORDER **The court has received a complaint from plaintiff Anthony Sharp, Jr., who is a prisoner at Waupun Correctional Institution. The complaint was mailed to the "United States District Court" at this court's address, but the caption of the complaint identifies the intended court as the Eastern District of Wisconsin, not this court, which is in the Western District of Wisconsin. And Waupun is located in the Eastern District, which suggests that Sharp mistakenly filed his complaint in this court. So Sharp may have until October 30, 2020, to inform the court whether he intended to file his complaint in the Eastern District of Wisconsin or the Western District of Wisconsin. If Sharp doesn't respond by then, I will transfer the case to the Eastern District. Signed by District Judge James D. Peterson on 10/16/2020. (rks),(ps) [Transferred from wiwd on 11/10/2020.]
October 15, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 3 ORDER that plaintiff submit Trust Fund Account Statement by 11/5/2020. Signed by Magistrate Judge Peter A. Oppeneer on 10/15/20. (aom),(ps) [Transferred from wiwd on 11/10/2020.]
October 15, 2020 Filing 2 Motion for Leave to Proceed in forma pauperis by Plaintiff Anthony Sharp Jr.. (aom),(ps) [Transferred from wiwd on 11/10/2020.]
October 15, 2020 Filing 1 COMPLAINT against All Defendants., filed by Anthony Sharp Jr.. (Case non-randomly assigned to District Judge James D. Peterson.) (Attachments: #1 Envelope) (aom),(ps) [Transferred from wiwd on 11/10/2020.]
