FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

DANIEL P. BJORLIN,

Plaintiff, No. 2: 10-cv-2162 FCD KJN P

vs.

DR. MORROW, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding without counsel with a civil rights action

pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On December 9, 2010, the undersigned recommended that this

action be dismissed based on plaintiff’s failure to file an amended complaint in accordance with

the order filed November 3, 2010. On December 17, 2010, plaintiff filed an amended complaint. 

Good cause appearing, the December 9, 2010 findings and recommendations are vacated.

The amended complaint states a potentially cognizable claim for relief pursuant to

42 U.S.C. § 1983 and 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b). If the allegations of the amended complaint are

proven, plaintiff has a reasonable opportunity to prevail on the merits of this action.

In accordance with the above, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The December 9, 2010 findings and recommendations (Dkt. No. 15) are

vacated;
