ORDER

BOYD BOLAND, Magistrate Judge

The motion titled "Motion to Appoint Plaintiff Justin Rueb as `Interim Counsel' for the Plaintiffs, Per Fed.R.Civ.P. 23(g)(3)" that Plaintiff Justin Rueb submitted to and filed with the Court on January 28, 2009, will be DENIED. A plaintiff who is not a lawyer is not entitled to act as attorney for other plaintiffs in federal court. See 28 U.S.C. § 1654; see also Fymbo v. State Farm Fire Cas. Co. , 213 F.3d 1320, 1321 (10th Cir. 2000).

The motion titled "Motion for the Court to Waive the Plaintiffs From their Traditional Obligation of Having to Produce Copies of This Lawsuit for Each Defendant, and to Order their Attorney to Make the Copies Instead" that Mr. Rueb also submitted to and filed with the Court, and that only Mr. Rueb signed, will be DENIED. As previously stated, a plaintiff who is not a lawyer is not entitled to act as attorney for other plaintiffs in federal court.

The amended complaint that Plaintiffs submitted to and filed with the Court on January 28, 2009, indicates the address for each Plaintiff. Therefore, the clerk of the Court will be directed to mail a Prisoner's Motion and Affidavit for Leave to Proceed Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915 to each named Plaintiff, other than Mr. Rueb, who is incarcerated and to mail a Motion and Affidavit for Leave to Proceed Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915 to the two named Plaintiffs who are not incarcerated. The Court already is in receipt of Mr. Rueb's § 1915 motion. Any Plaintiff who fails to cure the designated deficiency within thirty days from the date of this order will be dismissed without further notice as a party to this action. Accordingly, it is

ORDERED that the motion titled "Motion to Appoint Plaintiff Justin Rueb as `Interim Counsel' for the Plaintiffs, Per Fed.R.Civ.P. 23(g)(3)" that Plaintiff Justin Rueb submitted to and filed with the Court on January 28, 2009, is DENIED. It is

The Court already is in receipt of Mr. Rueb's § 1915 motion. It is

FURTHER ORDERED that any Plaintiff who fails to cure the designated deficiency within thirty (30) days from the date of this order will be dismissed without further notice as a party to this action.
