UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

FEASTER FOSTER,

Plaintiff,

vs.

C. URSENBACH, ET AL.,

Defendant

Case No.1:12 cv 00380 GSA PC

ORDER DISMISSING ACTION

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se. Plaintiff seeks relief pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 

§ 1983. Plaintiff has consented to magistrate judge jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 

636(c)(1).

By order March 17, 2015, the operative complaint was dismissed for failure to state a 

claim. Plaintiff was granted leave to file an amended complaint, and directed to do so within 

thirty days. On March 27, 2015, the order was returned to the Court by the U.S. Postal Service 

as undeliverable. The order was re-served on Plaintiff at his address of record on March 31, 

2015. Plaintiff has not filed an amended complaint.

In the March 17, 2015, order the Court informed Plaintiff of the deficiencies in his 

complaint, and dismissed the complaint on the ground that Plaintiff had failed to state a claim 

upon which relief could be granted. Because Plaintiff has not filed an amended complaint, the 

Court dismisses the claims made in the original complaint with prejudice for failure to state a

federal claim upon which the court could grant relief. See Noll v. Carlson, 809 F. 2d 1446, 1448 

(9th Cir. 1987) (prisoner must be given notice of deficiencies and opportunity to amend prior to 

dismissing for failure to state a claim).

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that this action is dismissed for failure to state 

a claim upon which relief can be granted. The Clerk is directed to close this case.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
