Dial v. Nebraska Department of Health & Human Services - Child Support Enforcement Division et al

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEBRASKA
ANTHONY DARNELL DIAL,
Plaintiff,
vs.
NEBRASKA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH &
HUMAN SERVICES - CHILD SUPPORT
ENFORCEMENT DIVISION,
Defendant.
8:25CV556
ORDER
This matter is before the Court on its own motion. On November 13, 2025,
Plaintiff filed a pleading titled “Complaint for a Civil Case,” Filing No. 14, which did not
include the present case number for this case, but did include the named defendant in
this action, as well as new defendants, and deals with the same subject matter as his
two previous complaints, i.e. the child support enforcement actions against Plaintiff.
Compare Filing Nos. 1 and 13, with Filing No. 14. Upon review, Plaintiff is advised that
the Court construes his “Complaint for a Civil Case” as a second amended complaint
intended for filing in this case and has docketed it as such. However, Plaintiff is warned
that he must include his case number (8:25CV556) on any document that he wants to
file in this case. See NECivR 10.1(a)(3) (“All documents after the pleading initiating a
proceeding must also show the correct docket number.”).
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that:
1. The Court will consider Plaintiff’s “Complaint for a Civil Case,” Filing No.
14, as a second amended complaint. Plaintiff is advised that the next step in his case
will be for the Court to conduct an initial review of his claims to determine whether

summary dismissal is appropriate under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2). The Court will conduct
this review in its normal course of business.
2. Plaintiff must include his case number (8:25CV556) on any future
document that he wants to file in this case. Failure to include the case number may
result in the document being returned to Plaintiff without filing.
Dated this 14th day of November, 2025.
