United States District Court

Northern District of California

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MAURICE J. BERNARD,

Plaintiff,

v.

KELLY MITCHELL, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 14-cv-05289-VC (PR)

ORDER OF DISMISSAL

Plaintiff Maurice J. Bernard, an inmate at San Quentin State Prison, initiated this action by 

filing a motion for a preliminary injunction. On April 8, 2014, the Court issued an order denying 

the motion for a preliminary injunction and directing Bernard to file a civil rights complaint on the 

Court’s civil rights complaint form within twenty-eight days from the date of the order. The Court 

informed Bernard that, if he failed to file a complaint on the proper form within twenty-eight days, 

his action would be dismissed for failure to prosecute. The Clerk mailed a blank civil rights 

complaint form to Bernard.

More than twenty-eight days have passed and Bernard has not filed a complaint on the 

Court’s civil rights complaint form nor has he communicated with the Court in any manner. 

Therefore, this action is dismissed without prejudice for failure to follow a Court order and for 

failure to prosecute pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b). 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated:
