Plaintiff appeared before the Court to testify in his summary judgment motion hearing on Tuesday, February 2, 2016.

The Court finds good cause is shown for the issuance of the subpoena.

The Clerk is DIRECTED to issue subpoena to: Bi-State Detention Center, 100 North State Line Avenue, Texarkana, TX 75501. The subpoena should require the production of the following:
