UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

FELTON LOVE, JR.,

Plaintiff,

v.

JEFF MACOMBER, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:23-cv-00790-DJC-EFB (PC)

ORDER

Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed this civil rights action 

seeking relief under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The matter was referred to a United States 

Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302. 

On November 20, 2023, the Magistrate Judge filed findings and 

recommendations herein which were served on all parties and which contained notice 

to all parties that any objections to the findings and recommendations were to be filed 

within fourteen days. Plaintiff has not filed objections to the findings and 

recommendations.

In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C) and Local Rule 

304, this Court has conducted a de novo review of this case. Having carefully 

reviewed the entire file, the Court finds the findings and recommendations regarding 

dismissal of the case to be supported by the record and by proper analysis. However,

while the Magistrate Judge recommends that the dismissal be without prejudice, this 

Court had previously warned Plaintiff that “[f]ailure to file an amended complaint 

within the time provided may result in the dismissal of this action, with prejudice.” 

(ECF No. 26 at p. 2 n. 2 (emphasis added).) As the Plaintiff failed to file an amended 

complaint as ordered, this dismissal is with prejudice. 

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The findings and recommendations filed November 20, 2023 are adopted in 

part; 

2. The complaint is dismissed with prejudice for failure to state a claim; and

3. The Clerk of Court is directed to close the case.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: January 12, 2024 

Hon. Daniel J. Calabretta
