ORDER
Plaintiff is a prisoner who is proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis. Plaintiff seeks relief pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983.
On May 14, 2009, the court ordered the United States Marshal to serve the complaint on defendants. Process directed to defendants J. Dang and Mikelatos was returned unserved because "per litigation-not employed." Plaintiff must provide additional information to serve these defendants. Plaintiff shall promptly seek such information through discovery, the California Public Records Act, Calif. Gov't. Code § 6250, et seq., or other means available to plaintiff. If access to the required information is denied or unreasonably delayed, plaintiff may seek judicial intervention.
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:
1. The Clerk of the Court is directed to send to plaintiff two USM-285 forms, along with an instruction sheet and a copy of the complaint filed November 17, 2008; and
2. Within sixty days from the date of this order, plaintiff shall complete and submit the attached Notice of Submission of Documents to the court, with the following documents:
a. One completed USM-285 form each for defendants Dang and Mikelatos;
b. Three copies of the endorsed complaint filed November 17, 2008; and
c. One completed summons form (if not previously provided) or show good cause why he cannot provide such information.
