IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

TYRONE HUNT,

Plaintiff,

 v.

COOPER,

Defendant. /

No. C 09-03387 JSW

ORDER OF DISMISSAL

The Court has received Plaintiff’s complaint and application to proceed in forma

pauperis, both filed in this Court on July 23, 2009. The Court also notes the Order dated July

28, 2009 in which the complaint was dismissed without prejudice and the file closed for failure

to maintain an updated address for Plaintiff. Having received a letter from Plaintiff dated May

19, 2010, the matter was reassigned to the undersigned. The original complaint was dismissed

with leave to amend. On May 28, 2010, the undersigned issued an order of dismissal and set a

deadline for filing an amended complaint.

It is impossible to discern from Plaintiff’s original complaint filed on July 23, 2009

many of the essential details of the events that triggered the lawsuit, the legal theories under

which he seeks relief, or the causes of action against any particular named defendant. The

handwriting is largely illegible and the attachments are not particularly elucidating. Plaintiff

has failed to set forth “a short and plain statement of the claim showing that the pleader is

entitled to relief” as required by Rule 8 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. The Court

admonished Plaintiff that failure to file a cognizable legal claim by June 18, 2010 would result

in dismissal

of this action with prejudice.

Although the Court has received multiple letters from Plaintiff, none of them constitutes

a short and plain statement of his claim. Accordingly, this action is DISMISSED WITHOUT

LEAVE TO AMEND. The Clerk shall close the file.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: June 28, 2010
