ORDER GRANTING

PLAINTIFF’S REQUEST FOR

EXTENSION OF TIME TO

FILE AMENDED

COMPLAINT

(Docket No. 13)

Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, filed a civil rights complaint pursuant

to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On March 2, 2006, the Court dismissed the complaint and granted

Plaintiff leave to file an amended complaint within thirty days. On April 3, 2006, the

Court granted Plaintiff’s requests for extension of time to file an amended complaint. On

April 24, 2006, Plaintiff filed a third request for extension of time to file an amended

complaint due to his prison transfer and limited law library access. The Court concludes

that Plaintiff has shown good cause for such extension. Accordingly, Plaintiff’s request

for extension of time to file an amended complaint (docket no. 13) is GRANTED. 

Plaintiff shall file the amended complaint on or before June 30, 2006.

Order Granting Plaintiff’s Request for Extension of Time To File Amended Complaint 

P:\pro-se\sj.jf\cr.05\Jackson620ext2

The Court reminds Plaintiff to include the caption and civil case number (C 05-

2620 JF (PR)) on the civil rights complaint form enclosed with this order and the words

AMENDED COMPLAINT on the first page. Because an amended complaint completely

replaces the original complaint, Plaintiff must include in it all the claims he wishes to

present. See Ferdik v. Bonzelet, 963 F.2d 1258, 1262 (9th Cir.), cert. denied, 113 S. Ct.

321 (1992). Plaintiff may not incorporate any material, including declarations or exhibits,

from the original complaint by reference. Failure to file the amended complaint within

the designated time will result in the Court dismissing the original complaint

without prejudice. 

It is Plaintiff’s responsibility to prosecute this case. Plaintiff must keep the Court

informed of any change of address by filing a separate paper captioned “Notice of Change

of Address.” He must comply with the Court’s orders in a timely fashion. Failure to do

so may result in the dismissal of this action for failure to prosecute pursuant to Federal

Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b). 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
