UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JESUS ESCALERA,

BOP #89120-198, Civil No. 08-2168 IEG (RBB)

Plaintiff,

ORDER REGARDING PLAINTIFF’S

REQUEST FOR POSTPONEMENT

OF PROCEEDINGS

[Doc. No. 8]

vs.

PUBLIC DEFENDERS OFFICE, et al.,

Defendants.

Plaintiff, an inmate currently incarcerated at Federal Correctional Institution in Memphis,

Tennessee and proceeding pro se, filed a civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On January

12, 2009 the Court granted Plaintiff leave to proceed in forma pauperis and sua sponte dismissed his

complaint without prejudice for failure to state a claim pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1915(e)(2) and

1915A(b). (Doc. No. 3.) On April 24, 2009, the Court granted Plaintiff’s motion for extension of time

to file his first amended complaint, giving him leave until June 8, 2009 to file the pleading. (Doc. No.

6.) The Court has received Plaintiff’s letter requesting the Court to “postpone” his case indefinitely

because of his lack of access to legal materials. (Doc. No. 8.) Because Plaintiff has not filed an

amended complaint, his case remains dismissed without prejudice pursuant to the reasons set forth in

the Court’s January 12, 2009 Order.
