UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

NATHAN HILL, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

GAVIN NEWSOM, et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:19-cv-1680 JAM AC P 

ORDER 

 On April 1, 2021, plaintiff filed a request for reconsideration of the magistrate judge’s 

screening order issued March 23, 2021, which: (1) identified plaintiff’s cognizable claims; (2) 

directed plaintiff to inform the court within fourteen days as to how he would like to proceed with 

this action, and (3) gave plaintiff thirty days within which to file a second amended complaint 

should he opt to amend. See ECF No. 30. 

 Pursuant to E.D. Local Rule 303(f), a magistrate judge’s orders shall be upheld unless 

“clearly erroneous or contrary to law.” Id. Upon review of the entire file, the court finds that it 

does not appear that the magistrate judge’s ruling was clearly erroneous or contrary to law. 

 Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that: 

 1. Upon reconsideration, the order of the magistrate judge issued March 23, 2021 (ECF 

No. 30) is AFFIRMED;
