SHERIFF DEPARTMENT, D. SOTASO, Defendants. 17 Plaintiff, who is confined in the Fresno County Jail, initiated this action by filing a pro se civil rights complaint on December 11, 2024. (Doc. No. 1). The court has not yet screened the complaint pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A, so no defendant has been served. On January 3, 2025, Plaintiff filed a two-page pleading titled “motion for complaint for temporary restraining order.” (Doc. No. 6, “Pleading”). Therein, Plaintiff s claims his life is in danger. (Id. at 1). The court construes the Pleading of a notice of danger instead of a motion for a temporary restraining order.
