UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

FORREST GRAY,

Plaintiff,

v.

DANIEL CASSIE,

Defendant.

Case No. 2:22-cv-00099-JDP (PC)

ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFF’S 

MOTION TO DISMISS HIS SECOND 

AMENDED COMPLAINT AND FINDING 

THAT THE FIRST AMENDED 

COMPLAINT STATES A COGNIZABLE 

EIGHTH AMENDMENT CLAIM 

AGAINST DEFENDANT CASSIE

ECF Nos. 13 & 34

On August 3, 2022, I found service appropriate for defendant Cassie based on plaintiff’s 

allegations of sexual assault in his first amended complaint. ECF No. 15. After I directed 

service, plaintiff filed a second amended complaint, ECF No. 28, which I found did not state 

viable claims, ECF No. 33. I grant plaintiff thirty days to either file an amended complaint or 

advisement that he wished to stand by his complaint, subject to dismissal. ECF No. 33. Plaintiff

instead filed a request to dismiss his second amended complaint and to proceed on his first 

amended complaint. ECF No. 34. That request is granted, and defendant is directed to respond to 

plaintiff’s first amended complaint within the time provided for by the federal rules of civil 

procedure.
