CLARENCE L. HEARNS, Plaintiff, v. ANDREW WHISNAND, et al., Defendants.
ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF'S EX PARTE REQUEST FOR ISSUANCE OF SUMMONS (DOC. 14)
JENNIFER L. THURSTON, CHIEF UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE.
Plaintiff has filed a request for an order directing the U.S. Marshal to serve on each Defendant a summons and the first amended complaint. (Doc. 14.) The Court has not yet screened the first amended complaint as required by 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(a). Accordingly, the Court DENIES as premature Plaintiff's request for the issuance of summons.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
