IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

KEVIN R. SCHRUBB, SR.,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-04-2706 MCE JFM P

vs.

C. FINN, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

On April 21, 2005, plaintiff filed an amended complaint. However, this civil

rights action was closed on March 16, 2005 pursuant to plaintiff’s March 7, 2005, request for

voluntary dismissal. Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a). Plaintiff is advised that documents filed by plaintiff

since the closing date will be disregarded and no orders will issue in response to future filings.

Plaintiff is advised that he may file a new action, and the Clerk of the Court will

be directed to send plaintiff the forms necessary to file a new § 1983 action. However, plaintiff

is cautioned that if he chooses to file a new action and later moves for voluntary dismissal of that

second action, it will serve as an adjudication upon the merits pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P.

41(a)(1). (See also Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(d) concerning potential liability for costs.)
