IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF KANSAS
DAVID L. WOODWARD,
Plaintiff,
v. 	CASE NO. 25-3110-JWL
JEFF ZMUDA, et al.,
Defendants.
MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
Plaintiff and Kansas prisoner David L. Woodward brings this pro se civil rights action
under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On November 10, 2025, the Court issued a memorandum and order
(“M&O”) that, among other things, granted Plaintiff to and including December 10, 2025 to file a
motion to for leave to supplement Counts I and II of the operative amended complaint and/or file
a motion for leave to file a second amended complaint. (Doc. 29.) This matter comes now before
the Court on Plaintiff’s motion for leave to supplement the amended complaint. (Doc. 33.) The
motion will be granted and the clerk will be directed to file the proposed supplemental amended
complaint, located at Doc. 33-1, as a supplement to the amended complaint, located at Doc. 8.
If Plaintiff wishes to add claims or defendants to this action, he must file a motion for leave
to file a second amended complaint on or before December 10, 2025, as set forth in the M&O. If
Plaintiff advises the Court in writing that he does not intend to file a motion for leave to amend,
however, the Court will order service on Defendants without waiting for the expiration of the
December 10, 2025 deadline. If Plaintiff chooses not to file a written notice in response to this
order, the Court will not order service until the December 10, 2025 deadline expires.
