UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JIMMIE L. DOSS,

Plaintiff,

v.

BURNES, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:19-cv-01014-NONE-BAM (PC)

ORDER ADOPTING FINDINGS AND 

RECOMMENDATIONS REGARDING 

DISMISSAL OF ACTION FOR FAILURE TO 

OBEY A COURT ORDER AND FAILURE 

TO PROSECUTE

(ECF No. 9)

Plaintiff Jimmie L. Doss (“Plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma 

pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 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 19, 2019, the assigned Magistrate Judge screened the complaint and 

ordered Plaintiff to file an amended complaint within thirty (30) days to proceed with this action. 

(ECF No. 7.) The Court expressly warned Plaintiff that his failure to comply with the Court’s 

order would result in dismissal of this action. (Id. at 8.) On January 10, 2020, following the 

expiration of the deadline to file his amended complaint, the Magistrate Judge issued findings and 

recommendations that this action be dismissed, without prejudice, for failure to obey a court order 

and failure to prosecute this action. (ECF No. 9.) Those findings and recommendations were 

served on Plaintiff and contained notice that any objections thereto were to be filed within 

fourteen (14) days after service. (Id. at 3.) The deadline to file objections has passed, and

Plaintiff has failed to file objections to the pending findings and recommendations or otherwise 

communicate with the Court regarding this action.

In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C), this Court has conducted a 

de novo review of this case. Having carefully reviewed the entire file, the Court finds the 

findings and recommendations to be supported by the record and by proper analysis.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The Findings and Recommendations issued on January 10, 2020, (ECF No. 9), are 

adopted in full;

2. This action is dismissed, without prejudice, due to Plaintiff’s failure to obey a 

court order and failure to prosecute; and

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

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: February 5, 2020
