Bernales was added to the Docket as William F. Bernales. See Docket Entry for Docket No. 39. The Clerk’s Office is INSTRUCTED to substitute Wilson F. Bernales for William F. Bernales. See Docket No. 39. 3 Plaintiff also seeks to renew his motion for limited discovery. Docket No. 40 at 2. A separate document must be filed for each type of relief requested. Local Rule IC 2-2(b). Accordingly, the Court declines to reach Plaintiff’s request to renew his prior motion at this time. 1 e The Clerk’s Office is INSTRUCTED to mail Plaintiff a blank copy of the USM-285 form. e Plaintiff will have twenty days in which to furnish the United States Marshal with the required USM-285 forms with the relevant information as to Defendant Wilson F. Bernales. e The Clerk’s Office will issue summons to Defendant Bernales, and deliver the complaint and that summons to the United States Marshal for service. e Within twenty days after recerving from the United States Marshal a copy of the Form USM-285, showing whether service has been accomplished, Plaintiff must file a notice identifying whether Defendant Bernales was served. If service was unsuccessful and Plaintiff wishes to have service attempted again, a motion must be filed identifying the unserved defendants and specifying a detailed name and/or address for said defendant, or whether some other manner of service should be attempted.
