UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

WILLIAM MARTIN HENDERSON,

Plaintiff,

v.

UNKNOWN, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:17-cv-2121 DB P

ORDER

Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis, has filed this civil 

rights action seeking relief under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The matter was referred to this court 

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302.

On March 6, 2020, the court directed plaintiff to file an amended complaint within thirty 

days. (ECF No. 26). More than thirty days have passed, and plaintiff has neither complied with 

the court’s order, nor communicated with the court in any way. As a result, within thirty days of 

the date of this order, plaintiff shall show cause why this action should not be dismissed for 

failure to prosecute and for failure to obey a court order. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b); see also L.R. 

110.
