UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ISAAC MONGIA,

Plaintiff,

v.

CITY OF FRESNO, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:23-cv-01234-JLT-EPG

ORDER FOR PLAINTIFF TO SHOW CAUSE 

WHY THIS ACTION SHOULD NOT BE 

DISMISSED, WITHOUT PREJUDICE, FOR 

FAILURE TO PROSECUTE AND COMPLY 

WITH A COURT ORDER

RESPONSE OR FIRST AMENDED 

COMPLAINT DUE IN 30 DAYS

Plaintiff Isaac Mongia, proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis, initiated this civil action 

by filing a complaint on August 18, 2023. (ECF No. 1). On October 20, 2023, Plaintiff filed a 

motion for leave to amend his complaint. (ECF No. 7). On November 11, 2023, the Court granted 

Plaintiff’s motion and directed Plaintiff to file an amended complaint “within 90 days of this 

order.” 

To date, Plaintiff has not yet filed an amended complaint and the deadline to do so has 

passed. Accordingly, the Court will direct Plaintiff to file a written response with the Court why 

this action should not be dismissed, without prejudice, for failure to prosecute and comply with a 

court order. Alternatively, Plaintiff may file an amended complaint, which the Court will screen 

in due course pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. (See ECF No. 3 at 2 n.1).
