UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JAMES E. SMITH,

Plaintiff,

v.

A. K. SCRIBNER, et al.,

Defendants.

 /

CASE NO. CV-F-04-5950 OWW LJO P

ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF’S MOTION

FOR AN EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE AN

AMENDED COMPLAINT, WITH PREJUDICE

(Docs. 73 and 74)

NOTICE TO PLAINTIFF THAT NO FURTHER

MOTIONS WILL BE CONSIDERED BY THE

COURT UNLESS THEY RELATE TO A

PROPERLY FILED APPEAL

This civil action was filed by plaintiff Smith, a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma

pauperis, on July 9, 2004. On March 31, 2006, plaintiff filed a motion seeking an extension of time

to file an amended complaint. This action is closed, having been dismissed with prejudice by the

Court on February 23, 2006. Plaintiff’s motion to set aside judgment was denied by the Court on

March 21, 2006.

Plaintiff’s request for an extension of time to file an amended complaint is baseless in light

of the dismissal of this action. There is no order pending requiring plaintiff to take any action. The

Court notes that plaintiff’s assertion, set forth in the instant motion, that the Court failed to respond

to his previously filed motion seeking clarification regarding his funds to pay for an appeal is without

merit. The motion was addressed by the Magistrate Judge in an order filed December 20, 2005,

which was served on plaintiff at his address of record (Kern Valley State Prison).

Plaintiff’s motion for an extension of time to file an amended complaint in this action is

HEREBY DENIED, WITH PREJUDICE. This Court will consider no further motions by plaintiff

seeking relief from the dismissal of this action. Any further motions filed by plaintiff not related to

a properly filed appeal will not be considered and will not receive any response from the Court.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
