UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

THOMAS MELGER,

Plaintiff,

v.

WELLS FARGO BANK N.A.,

Defendant.

No. 2: 16-cv-2222 TLN CKD PS

FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Plaintiff is proceeding in this action pro se and in forma pauperis. In this action, plaintiff 

complains about defendant opening unauthorized accounts. The complaint fails to set forth a 

basis for subject matter jurisdiction. 

By order filed September 28, 2016, plaintiff was ordered to show cause no later than 

October 28, 2016 why this action should not be dismissed for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. 

Plaintiff has not filed a response to the order to show cause. There being no evident basis for 

subject matter jurisdiction, the court will recommend that this action be dismissed.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY RECOMMENDED that this action be dismissed for lack of 

subject matter jurisdiction.

These findings and recommendations are submitted to the United States District Judge 

assigned to the case, pursuant to the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(l). Within fourteen days 

after being served with these findings and recommendations, any party may file written
