RECOMMENDATIONS ENTERED ON 

JANUARY 27, 2020

(ECF No. 10.)

ORDER DEEMING SECOND AMENDED 

COMPLAINT TIMELY FILED

(ECF No. 11.)

Alfredo Rudy Pena (“Plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma 

pauperis with this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. 

On November 5, 2018, Plaintiff filed the Complaint commencing this action. (ECF No. 

1.) On September 16, 2019, the court screened the Complaint and dismissed it for failure to state 

a claim, with leave to amend. 28 U.S.C. § 1915A. (ECF No. 6.) On October 21, 2019, Plaintiff 

filed the First Amended Complaint. (ECF No. 7.) 

On December 11, 2019, the court screened the First Amended Complaint and dismissed 

it for failure to state a claim, with leave to file a Second Amended Complaint within thirty days. 

(ECF No. 9.) The thirty-day deadline expired and Plaintiff within that time failed to file a Second 

Amended Complaint or otherwise respond to the court’s order. As a result, there was no pleading 

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