MEMORANDUM OPINION

FARNAN, District Judge.

Plaintiff Kevin L. Dickens, an inmate at the Delaware Correctional Center (“DCC”), filed this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. He appears pro se and was granted leave to proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. (D.I.4.) Although the Complaint was filed in 2004, service has not taken place for a number of reasons, most notably confusion over the filing of multiple Amended Complaints. On July 27, 2006, Plaintiff advised the Court that he wished to proceed on the original Complaint. (D.I.29, 30.)
