Trial Court Opinion
1 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 2 DISTRICT OF NEVADA 3 ok 4 Toney A. White, Case No. 2:24-cv-01523-GMN-BNW 5 Plaintiff, ORDER 6 v. 7 Julie Williams, et al., 8 Defendants. 9 Plaintiff Toney A. White filed this pro se civil-rights case under
42 U.S.C. § 1983. The 10 || Court screened Plaintiff's first amended complaint, found certain colorable claims, and dismissed 11 || other claims with leave to amend. (ECF No. 9.) On October 20, 2025, Plaintiff filed a second 12 || amended complaint, but on the signature page, there is a typed “/s/” rather than a handwritten 13 || signature. (See ECF No. 12 at 24.) Because Plaintiff is representing himself, he must personally 14 || affix a handwritten signature on every filing he submits to the Court. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 11(a); 15 || Becker v. Montgomery,
532 U.S. 757, 764(holding that Rule 11(a) requires a handwritten signature 16 || or mark). If Plaintiff does not promptly correct this omission, then the Court will be required to 17 || strike the unsigned second amended complaint. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 11(a). 18 IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Plaintiff must sign and return the second amended 19 || complaint by November 24, 2025. 20 IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiffs failure to comply with this order will result 21 || in the Court striking the second amended complaint and this case proceeding on the colorable 22 || claims found in the first amended complaint. 23 The Clerk of Court is kindly directed to send Plaintiff a courtesy copy of the unsigned 24 || second amended complaint. (ECF No. 12.) 25 DATED: October 24, 2025. 26
