ORDER / Plaintiff is a prisoner proceeding in forma pauperis and without counsel in a civil rights 17 action. The United States Marshal has returned process directed to defendants Sheila and 18 Rodriguez unserved, with notations indicating that “Shiela” cannot be located unless a last name 19 is provided, and that “Rodriguez” is not listed in the CDCR locator database. See Dckt. No. 17. 20 Plaintiff must provide new information about where these defendants may be served with 21 process. Plaintiff may seek such information through discovery, the California Public Records 22 Act, California Government Code §§ 6250, et seq., or any other means available but must 23 proceed with haste because Rule 4(m) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure requires that an 24 action be dismissed as to a defendant not served within 120 days after filing the complaint, 25 unless the time is enlarged based upon a demonstration of good cause. If plaintiff’s access to the 26 required information is denied or unreasonably delayed, plaintiff may seek judicial intervention. 1 1 Accordingly, it is ORDERED that: 2 1. The Clerk of the Court shall mail plaintiff two forms USM-285. 3 2. Within 60 days from the date this order is served, plaintiff may return the completed 4 forms USM-285, providing new instructions for service of process upon defendants Shiela and 5 Rodriguez. 6 3. Failure to provide new instructions for service of process upon defendants Sheila and 7 Rodriguez within the time allowed or show good cause for such failure will result in a 8 recommendation that this action be dismissed as to those defendants. 9 DATED: June 21, 2011. 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 2 1 2 3 4 5 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 6 FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 7 SAMUEL PEREZ, 8 Plaintiff, 9 10 vs. GANDY, et al., 11 Defendants. 12 NOTICE OF SUBMISSION OF DOCUMENTS / 13 14 No. CIV S-10-0349 WBS EFB P In accordance with the court’s order filed ______________________, plaintiff hereby submits: completed forms USM-285 15 16 17 Dated: 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 Plaintiff
