CLARK WADDOUPS, District Judge.
Daniel James Saxton (Mr. Saxton) has filed a motion requesting "copies of warrants and affidavits for warrants pertaining to this case."1 (ECF No. 69.) In support of his request, Mr. Saxton cites to Rule 55 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, which provides: "[t]he clerk of the district court must keep records of criminal proceedings in the form prescribed by the Director of the Administrative Office of the United States courts. The clerk must enter in the records every court order or judgment and the date of entry." Fed. R. Crim. P. 55.
While Rule 55 requires the "clerk of the district court" to "keep records of criminal proceedings," Mr. Saxton has pointed to no authority holding that Rule 55 imposes a duty on the court, or on the court clerk, to provide copies of those records to prisoners. Nor has Mr. Saxton cited to any authority so holding.
Mr. Saxton's Motion Requesting a Copy of Warrants and Affidavits for Warrants, (ECF No. 69) is DENIED.
