KAM WONG,

Plaintiff,

v.

UNUBUN, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 19-cv-05469-JST 

ORDER OF DISMISSAL

On August 30, 2019, Plaintiff filed the instant pro se complaint under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 

alleging that Santa Rita Jail deputies Unbun and Florence acted with deliberate indifference to his 

health and safety when they knowingly subjected him to inhumane and unsanitary conditions of 

confinement, thereby violating his rights under the Eighth Amendment. ECF No. 1. On October 

25, 2019, the Court reviewed the complaint and found while the conditions described by plaintiff 

were both unsanitary and unpleasant, they did not rise to the level of the severe and prolonged lack 

of sanitation that has been found to violate the Eighth Amendment. ECF No. 8. Because this 

deficiency could possibly be cured by the allegation of other facts, the Court dismissed the 

complaint with leave to amend. Id. Plaintiff was instructed to file an amended complaint by 

November 22, 2019, and informed that the failure to do so would result in the dismissal of this 

action without further notice. Id. The deadline to file an amended complaint has passed, and 

plaintiff has not filed an amended complaint or otherwise communicated with the Court.1

address as required by N.D. Cal. L.R. 3-11. Pursuant to Local Rule 3-11, the Court may, without 

prejudice, dismiss a complaint when mail directed to the pro se party by the Court has been 

returned to the Court as not deliverable; and the Court fails to receive within 60 days of this return 

a written communication from the pro se party indicating a current address. Mail sent to plaintiff 

was returned as undeliverable on September 20, 2019. ECF No. 4. Plaintiff has not
