UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

D. FERRARI, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

J. BEARD, et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:13-cv-1849 AC P 

ORDER 

 Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with a civil rights action filed pursuant to 42 

U.S.C. § 1983. Plaintiff has consented to the jurisdiction of the undersigned magistrate judge for 

all purposes pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) and Local Rule 305(a). See ECF No. 6. 

 On December 24, 2013, this court dismissed plaintiff’s original complaint with leave to 

file an amended complaint within 28 days. ECF No. 9. Thereafter plaintiff requested two lengthy 

extensions of time within which to comply with the court’s order. On February 5, 2014, the court 

granted plaintiff’s request for a 60-day extension of time, ECF No. 13, and on April 16, 2014, the 

court granted plaintiff’s request for a 90-day extension of time, ECF No. 15. In the last order, the 

court stated as follows, id. at 2: 

The court will grant plaintiff a final extension of time . . . . No 

further extension of time will be granted. Should plaintiff fail to 

file an amended complaint within the time provided by this order, 

this action will be dismissed.
