IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

HERMAN T. JOHNSON,

Plaintiff, 1: 03 CV 5228 OWW WMW PC

vs. ORDER RE: FINDINGS & 

 RECOMMENDATIONS (#67)

DERRAL ADAMS, et al.,

Defendants.

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se in this civil rights action. The matter

was referred to a United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local

Rule 72-302. 

 On March 23, 2006, an order was entered, dismissing the first amended complaint

with leave to file a second amended complaint. Despite numerous extensions of time and two

recommendations of dismissal, Plaintiff has failed to file a second amended complaint. On May

6, 2008, findings and recommendations were entered, recommending dismissal of this action for

failure to prosecute. On May 5, 2008, Plaintiff filed an interlocutory appeal. On July 17, 2008,

that appeal was dismissed. 

On July 29, 2008, an order was entered, granting Plaintiff a final opportunity to file a

second amended complaint. Plaintiff was specifically cautioned that if he failed to do so, the

In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636 (b)(1)(B) and Local Rule

73-305, 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

proper analysis. 

Accordingly, THE COURT HEREBY ORDERS that:

1. The Findings and Recommendations issued by the Magistrate Judge on May 6,

2008, are adopted in full; and

2. This action is dismissed without prejudice for failure to prosecute. The Clerk

is directed to close this case.
