PLAINTIFF'S MOTION TO
MODIFY SERVICE OF PROCESS ORDER
_________________

NOW COMES THE PLAINTIFF, Timothy J. Muise, acting pro se, who does herein respectfully move that the Honorable Court ISSUE an ORDER allowing the plaintiff to modify the Court's service of process order as a measure toward expedience and due to the plaintiff's indigency status. As compelling grounds for the instant motion the pro se plaintiff offers the following:

1. The Honorable Court issued an order allowing the indigent pro se plaintiff to serve the seven (7) named defendants via "certified first class mail, return receipt." (See Exhibit "A")
2. All seven defendants in this matter are employees of the Massachusetts Department of Correction. (DOC)
3. Once served all seven (7) defendants would be represented by counsel from the DOC Legal Division in Boston, Massachusetts.
4. All seven (7) defendants are also supervised by the DOC Central Headquarters in Milford, Massachusetts.
5. The plaintiff is an indigent Massachusetts resident who

(1)

is not able to afford the costs of seven (7) separate certified mail, return receipt mailings (approximately $65.00).
6. The plaintiff's inability to serve, due to costs, would deny him his access to the court.
7. The plaintiff could though afford to serve all seven (7) defendants at either the DOC Legal Division or the DOC Headquarters in one (1) certified mail package containing the seven (7) summonses and seven (7) copies of the complaint. (An extra copy of the complaint would be included for the DOC)
8. The plaintiff cannot see any type of harm which could be caused the defendants, all DOC employees, through this type of alternate/modified service, and further offers that it would serve the expediency of justice through such consolidation.
9. The plaintiff would ask that the Honorable Court determine which address, either DOC Legal or DOC Headquarters, it would desire the seven (7) summonses and seven (7) complaints to be delivered to.

WHEREFORE, the pro se plaintiff prays that the Honorable Court ALLOW the instant motion in its entirety and ISSUE an ORDER allowing for the requested alternative/modified service.
