MICHAEL RAPHAEL,

Plaintiff,

v.

LARENCE HARDIN,

Defendant.

Case No. 19-cv-02923-WHO 

ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND 

RECOMMENDATION

Re: Dkt. No. 8

On August 21, 2019, Magistrate Judge Donna M. Ryu issued a Report and 

Recommendation, recommending dismissal of this IFP action for failure to prosecute under 

Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b) because plaintiff had failed to file a first amended complaint

addressing the deficiencies identified in Judge Ryu’s Order Screening Complaint Pursuant to 28 

U.S.C. § 1915(e) despite having ample notice and opportunity. Dkt. No. 7. Judge Ryu’s Report 

and Recommendation was issued on August 21, 2019 and served by mail on plaintiff. Objections 

were due on or before September 4, 2019. As of today’s date, no objection or other response has 

been filed by plaintiff.

Having reviewed the record in the case, including Judge Ryu’s clear directives to plaintiff 

and plaintiff’s failure to comply with those directives, I agree with Judge Ryu’s Report and 

Recommendation and adopt it in every respect. This case is DISMISSED without prejudice for 

failure to prosecute under Rule 41(b).

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: September 18, 2019
