judgment, based on Plaintiff’s failure to comply with the thirty-day deadline in the court’s 

order. (Docs. 7, 8.) On January 27, 2015, the court reopened the case based on Plaintiff’s 

timely filing of a motion for extension of time. (Doc. 10.) Plaintiff was granted thirty 

additional days in which to file an amended complaint. (Id.)

an amended complaint or otherwise responded to the court’s order. As a result, there is no 

pleading on file which sets forth any claims upon which relief may be granted.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. ' 1915A and 28 U.S.C. ' 1915(e), this action is

DISMISSED, with prejudice, based on Plaintiff=s failure to state a claim upon 

which relief may be granted under section 1983;

2. This dismissal is subject to the Athree-strikes@ provision set forth in 28 U.S.C. '

1915(g). Silva v. Vittorio, 658 F.3d 1090, 1098 (9th Cir. 2011); and

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

IT IS SO ORDERED.
