Cambrin Barnes v. Dexter Payne, et al.

Trial Court Opinion

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS CENTRAL DIVISION CAMBRIN BARNES PLAINTIFF ADC # 147871 Vv. Lead Case No. 4:24CV00910-KGB-JTK Consolidated Case No. 2:25CV00044-KGB-JTK DEXTER PAYNE, et al. DEFENDANTS

ORDER Cambrin Barmes’s (‘Plaintiff’) Motion for Discovery (Doc. No. 71) is DENIED. In his Motion, Plaintiff seeks an address at which to serve Defendant Archie. (Id. at 1). But the Arkansas Division of Correction (“ADC”) already provided Defendant Archie’s last known address, and service attempted at that address—as well as service attempted through the ADC Compliance Office—failed. (Doc. Nos. 48, 65). Consequently, the Court directed Plaintiff to provide a valid address for service for Defendant Archie. (Doc. No. 68). It is Plaintiff's responsibility to provide a service address for Defendant Archie. See Lee v. Armontrout,

991 F.2d 487, 489

(8th Cir. 1993) (per curiam); see also FED. R. Civ. P. 4(m) (any defendant not served within ninety (90) days after the filing of the Complaint is subject to dismissal without prejudice). IT IS SO ORDERED this 8" day of December, 2025.
