IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

KENNETH R. HENRY, No. 2:12-cv-2828-CMK-P

Plaintiff, 

vs. ORDER

PETER VANNI, et al.

Defendants.

 /

Plaintiff, a prisoner proceeding pro se, brings this civil rights action pursuant to 42

U.S.C. § 1983. Pending before the court is plaintiff’s motion to file an amended complaint

(Doc. 12).

On December 4, 2013, the undersigned issued an order dismissing plaintiff’s

complaint and ordering plaintiff to file an amended complaint within 30 days. Instead of filing

his amended complaint, he file the current motion. The motion is unnecessary as the court has

already granted plaintiff leave to file an amended complaint. As it appears plaintiff may have

been a bit confused as to his course of action, he will be provided additional time in which to file

his amended complaint. Plaintiff is informed no motion is necessary as leave of court has

already been granted. Plaintiff simply needs to file an amended complaint which addresses the

deficiencies outlined by the court in the December 4, 2013 order.

Plaintiff is again cautioned that failure to file an amended complaint within the

time provided in this order may be grounds for dismissal of this action. See Ferdik v. Bonzelet,

963 F.2d 1258, 1260-61 (9th Cir. 1992); see also Local Rule 110. 

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Plaintiff’s motion to amend the complaint (Doc. 12) is denied as

unnecessary; 

2. The Clerk of the Court is directed to send plaintiff a new prisoner civil

rights form complaint; and

3. Plaintiff shall file an amended complaint within 30 days of the date of this

order. 

DATED: April 3, 2014
